Well, it\'s comments like that that result in you being on there in the first place, and besides, your prime minister didn\'t exactly do you lot any favours, when he was handing the "runners up" medals to the lose...... sorry, to the Australians. He had a face on him like a slapped arse, by the time he had reached the end of the line, he was practically throwing them at the ozzies in shameful disgust.
I hate to admit it, but when I saw him do that, a picture of several million+ other Australians doing exactly the same ran through my mind.
When you lot beat us in 91, and the queen had to congratulate the winners, and commiserate the losers, she did it with dignity, she didn\'t look down her nose at her own team, and stare daggers at the winners.
If the Australians were voted 4th biggest losers for anything, it was for that show by your PM, he is your representative on the world stage.

Man, I\'d love to see that footage, if there is one on the net. That\'s very shameful for a PM to do that. It\'s not like they lost the game intentionally. Well, I\'m glad someone explained why Australia was voted as 4th biggest loser over a game. I was somewhat befuddled.

We all know that Aussies are losers. ;)

What do David Blaine and Australia have in common?
They bothed ****ed Racer in the ass?

I\'ll have a look for some video footage, but I\'ve found a few snippets.

I see it like this, you guys say the PM = all Australians. I say your lame vote thing = all of your country. So, if we’re losers for losing a game, then your mega losers for making lame vote things like this.
Cerberus you say the Queen did it with dignity. Yet you guys make a lame poll like this, where’s the dignity in that? You\'ve go a contradiction if you ask me. At least have some dignity in winning, rather then gloating, then calling australians losers for it..
The Australian PM doesn\'t represent all of us. He represents himself. We\'re just stuck with the knob. You guys had a voting Poll, that’s more then 1 single person. Think about it.

Where\'s the dignity in having 2 comedians(???) who look like a pair of homosexual sheep shearers, taking the piss out of the England team in the run up to the final? Where\'s the dignity in belittling Jonny Wilkinsons kicking stance? Where\'s the dignity in having every little dig possible at every area of the English game, in a vain failed attempt to find some sort of weakness in the English team spirit? Where\'s the dignity in bugging the entire England living quarters for the duration of the world cup, in a shallow attempt to unlock the secrets of the best team in the world?
Don\'t have a pop at us English for lacking in dignity, you wouldn\'t know dignity if it jumped up and slapped you accross the face.

Dignity is my middle name. Can I slap him? :p

Geez,get over the god damn rugby.You might be amazed to hear this but I don\'t give a shit,you go on like it\'s some sort of cure for cancer.It\'s rugby dude,they run and kick a ball.Get a grip.
P.S. David Blaine is still English,so you guys take the no.1 spot.
P.P.S Our P.M. always looks like,Slapped arse did you say?

Yea i guess we kick your ass at so many sports we\'ve forgotten how to have dignity.. We haven\'t needed it much. :rolleyes:
But i guess if a country poll has more dignity then a few people being dickheads then you\'re country is Dignity champs. I guess we could start selling our best sport people to other counties. It\'s such a respectable thing. Maybe Spain is in need of some of our sport stars.....
