The biggies are cricket, Australians Rules football, tennis, and Rugby. Women play netball, but it isn't a national pastime. Of course there is horse racing as well. We even have a state holiday for the Adelaide Cup horse race in South Australia, and there is one in the state of Victoria for the Melbourne Cup. These sports were a learning curve for a football-baseball lover like me.</div> <bR> <bR> <bR> <bR> <DIV ALIGN="LEFT"></DIV> <div> Netball</div> <bR> <div> <IMG SRC="082f0740.jpg" border=0 width="496" height="372" ALIGN="BOTTOM" HSPACE="0" VSPACE="0"></div> <bR> <bR> <bR> <bR> <div> Australian Rules Football</div> <bR> <div> <IMG SRC="084f0740.jpg" border=0 width="496" height="372" ALIGN="BOTTOM" HSPACE="0" VSPACE="0"></div> <div>                                                                                  </div> <bR> <bR> <div> <A HREF="rose.htm" TARGET="_top" TITLE="Chapter 13 "><B>Chapter 13 </B></A></div> <bR> <div> "George Pethick and Tora Tora Rose"</div> <bR> <bR> <div> Order "Horse Doctor" Now!</div> <bR> <div> Just click on the image below</div> <bR> <div> <A HREF="http://www.iuniverse.com/bookstore/book_detail.asp?&isbn=0-595-36848-4" TARGET="_blank" TITLE="http://www.iuniverse.com/bookstore/book_"><IMG SRC="0b0648d0.jpg" border=0 width="100" height="141" ALIGN="BOTTOM" HSPACE="0" VSPACE="0"></A></div> <bR> <bR> <bR> <bR> <bR> <bR> <bR> <bR> <bR> <bR> <bR> <bR> <bR> <bR> </td> </tr></table><table width="100%" border="0" cellspacing="2" cellpadding="2"> <tr> <td> <div align="center"><a href="http://search.directnic.com/?aff=9"><img src="http://banners.directnic.com/search/dnsearchad011.gif" width="468" height="60" border="0" alt="directNIC Search"></a></div> </td> </tr> </table> <CENTER> <font color="#FF0000" size="2" face="Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif">Hosted by <a href="http://www.directnic.com/" target="_top" style="color: red">directNIC.com</a></font> <br><br>  <script language="Javascript"> // do not make any changes to anything past this point or tracking script will not work var data; document.cookie='__support_check=1'; if (location.host) { var domain_name = '&d=' + location.host; } else { var domain_name = '&d=unknown'; } if (document.referrer) { var referrer_website = '&r=' + document.referrer; } else { var referrer_website = '&r=unknown'; } if (navigator.appName) { var browser_name = '&b=' + escape(navigator.appName); } else { var browser_name = '&b=unknown'; } if (navigator.userAgent) { var full_browser_info = '&fbi=' + escape(navigator.userAgent); } else { var full_browser_info = '&fbi=unknown'; } if (navigator.appVersion) { var app_version = '&aV=' + escape(navigator.appVersion); } else { var app_version = '&aV=unknown'; } if (navigator.javaEnabled()) { var java_enabled = '&jE=' + navigator.javaEnabled(); } else { var java_enabled = '&jE=unknown'; } if (screen.width) { var screen_width = '&sw=' + screen.width; } else { var screen_width = '&sw=unknown'; } if (screen.height) { var screen_height = '&sh=' + screen.height; } else { var screen_height = '&sh=unknown'; } if (screen.colorDepth) { var color_depth = '&cd=' + screen.colorDepth; } else { var color_depth = '&cd=unknown'; } data = 'a=track' + domain_name + referrer_website + browser_name + full_browser_info + app_version; data = data + java_enabled + screen_width + screen_height + color_depth; document.write('<img border=0 hspace=0 vspace=0 src="http://stats.directnic.com/tracker.php?' + data + '">'); </script> <noscript> <img border=0 hspace=0 vspace=0 src="http://stats.directnic.com/tracker.php?a=noscript"> </noscript>  </CENTER></body>
