Ha! Poor Zip Zip, remind me a lot of Marty McLinden or Mick Monaghan.
They could have just replayed the opening ceremony of the Sydney Olympics and I'd have enjoyed it more.

Looks like the “show” is done and it will be the formal proceedings now.

Pretty crap opening ceremony to be honest. If they wanted to present iconic Gold Coast themes then surely a drunken schoolies brawl needed to make an appearance.

Schoolies are more a go the grope. You're thinking of an bikie brawl.

Schoolies and toolies?
Gina Riley: Oh, come on, John. That’s a bit old hat, the corrupt IOC delegate.
John Clarke: Old hat? Gina, in the scientific world when they see that something is happening again and again and again, repeatedly, they don’t call it old hat. They call it a pattern.

Schoolies gather and get groped by toolies. Bikies converge to sell drugs. It erupts into a bikie brawl. Campbell Newman shrouded in light gloriously enters the arena and banishes the Bikies. Writes itself.

I dunno but the organisers of this shin dig don't seem to like them. Very underrepresented.

I pointed that out when PNG entered. If you’re talking distance from Gold Coast it would be pretty close.....however Norfolk Island trumps them both.

Some of the Torres Strait Islands are swimming distance from some of the PNG islands. Well, apart from the sharks, and crocs, and stingers...

Noonan was brilliant.

Beattie will do ANYTHING to get away from the burning dumpster fire that is the NRL for 5 minutes.
