Should the question about Sir Donald Bradman be taken out of the Australian citizenship test?

Question

the question asks: Who the greatest australian cricketer in the 1930's was, the answers are out of; Sir Hubert Opperman (who was a cyclist) and Walter Lindrum (who was a billiards player) and Sir Donald Bradman (who was a cricket player (obviously) )

Answer 1

I see nothing wrong with having a question about Sir Donald Bradman. He is part of Australia's history, after all, and an iconic figure.

I think if the UK introduces citizenship tests, we should have a question about the 1966 World Cup win. Again, part of our history, and an iconic moment.

Answer 2

No i dont think so..

Anyone who wants to live in Australia would no doubt have read up on our history,and Sir Don is part of our history,most nationalities know who Sir Donald Bradman is anyway...

No he is an important part of Aussie sport history,he should stay in the test..

Answer 3

well Colonel, it might have nothing to do with our countrys history or civics, be Bradman is not just a big slice of our cricket history, but our countrys history, sure he scored bucketloads of runs, but he also gave people hope in one of our countrys darkest periods (the depression in the 30s), which i think makes it a very relvant question that should stay in the test

Answer 4

Do you really want  such an easy question to be deleted ?

Answer 5

Well, my friend i think the question about Sir Don Bradman should not be taken out or raised as they look good while reading the "Cricket History" & apart from this there are lots of far better advanced players than Bradman nowadays in the modern cricket as cricket is not the same like it used to be those days it is advanced too with the time.

Answer 6

Why should it? I like the idea of this test, it makes people look into our history & may just make them appreciate us and their new country.
