Reading the Sydney Morning Herald today this made me laugh. The quote is from Leon Pryce who is part of the Great Britian rugby league side out in Australia to play in the Tri Nations.
Anyway he must be because he went on to say
I don't really care about the league tri nations anyway I'm more interested in rugby, Australia plays Wales on Saturday. They beat us last time (we're rebuilding for the world cup next year).
"I don't think they have much respect for us at all - as people as well as players. I don't think they really like the English," he wrote on bbc.co.uk. "They keep going on about Pommies this and Pommies that ... they don't seem to be keen on us."
As for the country, Pryce said: "It's not all it's made out to be. All the Aussies come over and say how good it is, but I'd much rather be back in Bradford. I'd rather be on Blackpool beach than Bondi beach. They can keep the country to themselves."
