Kiwis versus Aussies?

[mike n]

ON other boards here in the States there seems to be a riff between the Kiwis and the Aussies? None of my buisness but ,Whats up with that?

[davereid]

I don't think its real, just competitive sparring between mates. Seen from outside it can look a bit shitty.

For real bitching watch a Queenslander and a Victorian.. thats really competitive !

[meteor]

Same as the Yanks v Canadians and the Pomes v the Irish (but I think the Irish may have a reason for that!). The Aussie v Kiwi thing is more a friendly competitive rivalry. Nothing in it really. Want to see real rivalry?... let's talk religion!

[merv]

Yeah and its not real like when you get South of the Mason Dixon line.

[rickstv]

And when we Kiwis compete and win in any sport, it aint worth the paper it's written on unless Aussie was also competing.:woohoo:
Rick.

When that happens the aussies write it up as an Australasian win, as we automatically gain statehood.

Fixed that for you...

They stole our horse. And our pavlova. They can keep Russell Crowe though, no returnsies!

[avgas]

Arrogance is a motherfucker. Surely an American can understand the severity of this.
Problem is NZ and Aussie have an arrogance see-saw effect, one of us walks in as an underdog, the other falls.

And the end of the day we are both useless - but its our pride.....I mean arrogance that keeps us competing.

like 2 retards we can't hold back.

Aussies are just bitter cos the Australian Idol guy is a kiwi.
I like the band Crowded House but I'm not sure where in Australia the town of Te Awamutu is.
Aussies hate the fact that they have over 20 million sheep and NZ only has 6 million.
But kiwis love Australia. I think half the population of the Gold Coast is expat kiwis

I got banned from a US biker site for my views about guns and Jesus. And some people think that Kiwi Biker is over-moderated...

If this was an American forum I would have been banned a long time ago. They didn't take too kindly to me making sly remarks about hot looking females on another forum.

[Big Dave]

Nobody mention the war.

[schrodingers cat]

Simple really - they are dicks and we are not

[Bald Eagle]

Nobody mention the war.


There was a war ????

[Big Dave]

I like the band Crowded House

You and shooting Jesus......when will you learn.
He is the supreme zombie - and can not be killed by mortal bullets.

Apparently it rages on.
Are gumboots or velcro better for sheep control...

[Bikemad]

Are there hot looking women on KB? Perhaps one should get out more...

[SMOKEU]

Dean pointed out a few hot (female) KB members to me.

Wouldn't take that for gospel....whoops, am i allowed to say that?

[Katman]

Aussies are just bitter that they descend from a long line of convicts.

You might be put in the sin bin for mentioning the G word.

perspective is a funny thing. Written like that it looks like a bad thing.


NZ vs AUS is generally a good natured rivalry. Both nations love to beat the other.
It adds extra spice to any encounter between the two nations.
Often brings out better performances from those concerned than if they were playing any other nation.

It is in all areas, not just sport, business, the arts, everything. (not to mention the sheep jokes!)

I enjoy the rivalry between our two nations. I don't hate the Aussies, but enjoy it when we beat them!

[Forest]

Australians earn more, live in a country that provides greater opportunities, and win most of the sports that they compete in.

But I still prefer to live and work in New Zealand.

[Bald Eagle]

They seem to be pretty poor losers (http://www.stuff.co.nz/sport/commonwealth-games/cycling/4206628/Second-Aussie-flips-the-finger)as well

Nah I still stand by my comment.

We both compete saying we are better than the other - only to find out we a tiny specs on the surface.

At the end of the day India owns Aussie and the Chinese own us lol
So really this is India vs China, and we are the Pawns.

[wysper]

I agree, we are tiny on the world stage, but it is still great having a rivalry with Aussie. And occasionally we star.

[slofox]

Aussies all have weak chins. Me Mum told me that so it must be true. She oughta know - she was married to one for 500 years or so (or was that 50?)...

So really, I am a "mid-tasman mongrel" when ya think about it.

It's like siblings really - fight like fuck when together but just let any other bastard threaten our brother/sister and look out!

Come on over and help us burn them :shutup:

I got to see the final moments of last night's netball final (I shouldn't watch that stuff - too stressful!).

I thought of the above post when I saw the reaction of the Aussie players to their loss. Talk about poisoned pups...even during the medal ceremony there was no "losing gracefully" displayed.

One exception was their coach who at least was magnanimous in defeat even though she was, no doubt, seething within.

's only a game after all...

ssshhh... yanks too..

I did once - and I think I got away with it...

Fwuk!:shit:

I'm half Aussie yet love NZ & most of the folk I know/met there are awesome.... except the bitch at the Waihi Information Centre :mad:

Born in Queensland but lived in Victoria for decades

Half Canadian... nup nothing good to say about the yanks :scratch: :bleh:

I'm a vegi too... nuff said

... Don't really think any Aussie or NZer takes it too serious. If they do then they're probably ferral anyways
