I notice that 7 out of 11 top places in Aus Championships are held by NSW, only one each by Vic, ACT, Qld and O/S.
And our retired GM Rogers is also NSW. Cry your hearts out. |

And our deceased GM Purdy was also from NSW, the gentleman offered me a game in about 1975.
And in Peter Parrs column in Sydney Morning Herald he praised many juniors but left out Vic junior..... And Tassie did not even get a mention - is it part of Aussie? And WA, SA and NT - they only enter the Beer drinking comps But Vic excels in knocking off the Indian Student invasion |

When I first came to Australia I was told that the only good thing that ever came out of Sydney was the Hume highway.
Nevertheless there are some points where NSW may outscore Melbourne. First they have the Chess Australia DGT boards. Second they have Bondi which has to be the most civilized area in Australia as it has more kiwis and Russians than bogans. Third it does not have to put up with Essendon, Collingwood or Carlton football club supporters. The Manley Sea eagles have a much higher class of supporters. Why anyone would leave the beach to watch thugball is something that I cannot understand. NSW politics is much more interesting than Victorian politics. This goes back to the time of Governor Bligh.

The first time I went to Windy hill knowing very little about Australian Football there were two ladies in red and black in front of me who said the most appalling things about the players. It took me some time and close examination of the program to realize that they were bagging the Essendon players. They must have been right. The following year Essendon hired Sheedy who cleaned out the rubbish.

Lets hold the Australian Championship in Ballarat and see how many players come south. It would be great for Victorians and croweaters of course.
