Heya @brucebrownftw - in my opinion, its just cheeky banter. However, there is definitely some rivalry when it comes to sports, especially rugby. Sometimes it does get annoying. But as I always say to people who try to pull a quick one on me, "tell me one I haven't heard, then I'll be impressed." Us Kiwi's can take a joke (and can dish it back lol), but atleast be original 😅

Ok. I have been curious about that as the Aussies get pretty relentless with it. I mean I don't even understand the jokes most of the time. Good to know it is all in fun.
Love the Kiwi rugby chant.. epic AF (slang www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=AF) .. getting chills just thinking about it
@brucebrownftw Don't get me wrong, there are those out there that do get carried away and just don't know when to stop. Do you mind me asking where you are from? It's interesting hearing this from a different perspective.
And yeah, the Haka (Maori war chant) always gets the chills going - it's pretty much the only thing I'll watch when it comes to the rugby lol
From the US. Originally California, but Colorado is my home. I traveled a lot and got to visit Australia. The people were very cool and i had a great experience. I also met some Australian airman and soldiers when i was in the military.. very down to Earth.
I really appreciate the US (warts and all). But if i had to live somewhere else Australia would have to be on my top 5. I only have glimpses of New Zealand. Everything i have seen has been good.. except the jokes.. lol but its just jokes. I notice Australians don't really have mouth filter.lol
