  Fella in pic, Ange, an Australian, just coached football team to a comp win overseas. Levy, his boss, will probably fire him anyway because that big win came at expense of club performance in another comp.

    Ok so I just Googled “Big Ange” because I was still lost. Seems like he’s a former soccer player/current soccer coach? It woulda saved a lot of time if you’d just mentioned that after I asked. 🤦‍♂️

    Or better yet, since unless I’ve gotten turned around somewhere I’m pretty sure both you and I, as well as the Community we’re commenting on, are on the Aussie instance, you could’ve used the term Australians prefer right off the bat rather than the more general term preferred in countries that don’t have other forms of football. I actually kinda got excited for a sec at the idea of Aussie rules being played overseas.

    But back onto the topic: I’m actually genuinely not sure right now if that’s a photo of him. His Wikipedia photo looks pretty similar to this guy, but it also looks like it could easily be a genuine undoctored frame of the Jack Karlson arrest video. But I suppose that was the point?

      Geez Zag sorry mate.

      you could’ve used the term Australians prefer right off the bat

      That’s more than a bit of a generalisation, no?

      I actually kinda got excited for a sec at the idea of Aussie rules being played overseas

      They do, I don’t think there are any other professional leagues though.

      But I suppose that was the point?

      Pretty sure. Also looks ai generated I aint fussed in this case.

    People play football overseas? Or is it rugby?

      Did I say football? I meant rollerball. His team successfully killed all their opponents on the rink and and got the most goals. Brutal sport that one.

        What like roller derby? Neat! I can’t say I actually know too much about that.
