I thought they stopped because we keep throwing cut lunches.

Fair enough, let me rephrase that

Yeah, i thought it stopped when the irish got tired of being beaten all the time
 
Why does this pointless exercise still continue?

Use a Sherrin instead of a soccer ball for once and see how it goes.

An Irish journalist suggested that to Leigh Matthews one year when they had a win against us. Matthews response was that the Irish wouldn't even touch it if we did that, and I think he's right. I think it should be scrapped too. There appears to be very little interest here in it.
 
Can't just abandon it n ruin an excuse for an all expenses paid overseas *smile* up. Guess Fletch has one last chance at a farewell game n celebratory lap, even if it is over in Ireland. FFFFARCICLE.

Was it even played last year? I can't recall it at all.
 
Would be better to send a team to the US, and spread the word of the game. Already quite a few teams there.

I genuinely see no point in this exercise. Would not have a clue as to the results of the last few series' that have been played.

It's the National Championships this weekend. Some AFL players are over there for it.
