Does it include lawn bowls...if not it should.

If the other Australian sports get there way Lawn Bowls will get kicked out....Big complaint from Manchester in 2002 was that the more serious athletes were angry at the Lawn Bowlers for coming back at the end of the day and getting on the gas, where as the rest of the athletes were in trying to get to sleep before they had to bust a gut the next day....
Let that be a lesson to you Port, no one beats the Bays five times in a row in a GF and gets away with it!!!

Awwww, boohoo to the athletes that aren't as well conditioned as the lawn bowlers and can't perform to their optimum with a hangover. They should get rid of all the wussy sports with athletes that can't handle their piss. They're not real athletes anyway, Grenville Dietrich was a real athlete. :wink:

Was a volunteer at Melbourne 2006 and really enjoyed it.

Even a cynic like me was quite amazed how the event transformed the city for those few weeks.

Just getting the train home at 12.30am after each shift and seeing everyone on the train talking away to each other about the days event was something to behold.
