I more of an AFL fan, than a league fan. I'm not sure whether you're referring to A-League or NRL though. But either way, AFL all the way ;).
Oh, that's heaps cool that you live so close. Do you ever watch them train? ;) Gillard's a bulldog's supporter.
Kewell and Emerton, I have to agree, are passed their prime and 'washed up'. Though they do attract larger crowds simply because of their superstar status.
December Boys portrayed South Australia in a much better way, albeit it was only Kangaroo Island, but it had Daniel Radcliffe in it, so that's pretty cool.
Are you a fan of cricket at all?
