Wow. Simply wow. It's like the Aussie Rules Football the rest of the world just doesn't understand and truly grasp the entirely of the spectacle.
The sights and smells hang softly in the air.
Smells are how I remember stuff from when I was a young kid 20+ years ago
Ya it's actually pretty similar to Aussie rules and as you probably know there are sometimes hybrid games where Ireland play Australia in a mash up of Gaelic Football and Aussie Rules.
Yep I used to watch the International Series all the time when I was a kid. Some great passion in that series. Used to religiously follow the Sydney Swans and followed Tadhg Kennelly's career
Ah yes Tadhg Kennelly, some player in his day, though I'd say the locals struggled big time trying to figure out how to pronounce Tadhg!!
Ya there were some seriously good games over the years, maybe a bit too physical at times, when the brawls and close lines happened.
