Would you go along & watch a Jewish team playing a Palestinian team at Australian Rules Football?

Question

ISRAELIS and Palestinians could play alongside each other in a team representing their region in an international Australian rules’ football tournament in Melbourne this year.

The AFL will be staging its third International Cup in August as part of celebrations to mark the sport’s 150th birthday, with teams from 15 countries already expressing interest in taking part.

The Israeli/Palestinian team would be known as the Peres Peace Team. The junior players have never seen the game played - nor even seen a football - or know the rules (Hmmmmm, not knowing the rules would make them excellent AFL umpires material!).

My troll had my previous question on this subject removed as I was reported for 'chatting'.

RR>>>>>>>Y.C.S.M.D.

Answer 1

Yeah i would take a look

Answer 2

Yeah - top idea.

Not knowing the rules would place them well to be administrators too.  Perhaps they could help advise Demetriopolous on some new rules ...

Any touching and you're out for six weeks... oh no that's already the rule.

Answer 3

I would go & watch the game.

The caterers would have to ensure they weren't selling pork pies or bacon burgers!

Answer 4

wondered what happened to the other one, unreal.

nah mate i wouldnt go, wouldnt interest me, i want to see the AFL kick off again.

Answer 5

Why not.

It would be a blast

Answer 6

You bet

But may I remind you that you properly mean:

Israeli vs Palestine

OR

Jewish vs. Moslem's.

Palestine is a place not a religion.

Answer 7

Yeah I would. but you know nothing ever happens in Perth so I cant really. I think its a good idea though. I dont care what country they are from.

Answer 8

Yes.

I would go along - solely for the novelty of it.

A match like this would be a good curtain raiser, or half time entertainment, during a senior AFL game.

Answer 9

yes, I would go.

Answer 10

Yes. I would go.
