Austria or Australia- Main thing Football

The link was sent to me by my Austrian nephew.


A-league Bloopers- Season 2013/2014

http://derstandard.at/2000001359346/Aus ... e-Fussball

The text roughly translated reads,
" Curious scenes from the Australian football League.
They didn't invent football "down under".

"Admittedly many of the scenes could be from the domestic League, but we don't want to be too critical so we wish you fun with the days sporting find!"
Off course Eugene is in it with his howler and there is one moment of Josep Gombau.

And right at the bottom there is a recommendation from the editors to "turn off the sound"

:D

There is one telling comment amongst the many and I quote...
The main difference between Austria and Australia is that Australia is going to the WC2014 and Austria is not.
" There was, he added, no room for spin, showmanship, hubris or “any of the feelings of invincibility” that so often shackle nations with an imperial past ... " - - -

This video has done the ronda around the world, the americans seemed particularly critical of the league.

I think any league in the world with decent broadcasting of each game would have a similar blooper reel each year .

Even adp and gallas featured.

Great for a laugh though
Ppl who slap the label of truth on the 1st thing they hear, do it out of ignorance, convenience or cant be bothered picking through a thin layer of falsehood to find the real truth, or possibly even another lie

Selective editing is a wonderful thing.
:D


But that Berisha "death roll" is quite embarrassing.

JayFC does one of these blooper compilation videos each season. His videos are the best thing about the A-league, though I assume most people here have seen them all.
