    I was in Melbourne a couple of days ago and the Herald Sun had an article on Barry Hall v Sonny Bill Williams on the Mundine v Green 2 Undercard in Perth on Australia Day 2010.

    It seems all you need to do is make up stories these days to be a journalist.

    Reasons it will not happen

    1/ SBW is not that dumb
    2/ French Rugby Season is still going in Febuary
    3/ A smart businessman wouldnt put the two fights ( even if they happened) on same card.

    The journo reckons the story came from a " street source" , which could of just been a bum in the street....however they may have just been aluding to Khoder NAsser who with the clothes and beard he usually sports could be confused for a bum in the street!

    Wrong. They could tattoo it on an ant. These clowns that write these articles in newspapers know nothing about boxing at all.

    given green is set to fight jones and mundine v bika none of it makes any sense and I am sure green and mundine if this close (only 6 months out) would be building it more than that!

    Reckon Hall is a monty for the Danny Green v Roy Jones card though (assuming it comes together as planned of course).

    Green has already said he'd take Hall to the US for his upcoming fight on the Jones card. After that Hall will be living and breathing it.

    Sydney - Nice to look at if you live on the harbour, shocking to get around in, and just not a take part kinda city like melbourne.

    I don't live in either one. But I've played gigs and visited both 32098479328742 times. Melbourne is just better in all departments except the beach.

    You need to get up north to the gold coast mate :hey

    No bad weather....great fishing....you can swim in winter....no car jams...no turning right from the left hand lane.....not as much of that kick the ball in the air...drop the ball...fumble...fumble...bounce the ball.....off side off side.....knock on.....kick a goal and miss...and get a point.....what sort of game is that :huh :yep

    But Mundine VS Green and Sol VS Hall would be huge down in the VIC....bring it on I say :good

    you mean sweat in the shower.....fish off a pier where you need a 12 foot net to land anything........swim with sharks, jellyfish, those ****en rock lookin spikey coral things that kill you heaps, shellfish that harpoon you and rips that drown everyone.......where do turn right from? we DRIVE in the left lane in vic, so if we turn anywhere at all we turn from the left lane......do you mean afl, ummmm where exactly does the offside rule lie, coz i've never seen it, and i have followed the game for nigh on 30 years now.......but yeah, awesome points you made man........heh

    well, the pissed and mental part of it applies to most of my points, even though there is a small case for an argument in each, but the offside rule in afl really doesn't exsist, so i'll stand by that one. hrmph, haha
