The state of the Game is the game of the State

The state of the Game
Is the game of the State,
My ball up’s your balls up
It’s mate upon mate
You call it a scrap
I call it congestion,
Your finest entree
My indigestion
Six six six
The sign of the devil?
Starting positions
Is the playing field level?
Footy was footy
When men were real men,
Now fodder for ads
On SE bloody N
What do they speak of
When they talk footy lately?
Not speccies or torps
Just talkback on Whateley
The rules of the game
The list on the fridge,
Art works in progress
Like Sydney Harbour’s Bridge
About Peter Baulderstone

PB, I keep wondering how much of this current angst is just a product of too many journos with too little to discuss? Or maybe too many middle-aged journos?
Cheers
Nice work PB.
What a beat up this debate it!
I reckon the ugly thing in footy is Ben Brown’s run up. Now, seriously, that is bloody hard to watch.
