Frankly seeing Macedonians achieve great heights in a Sport like Australian Rules doesn't motivate me to give them a high five
International Sport yes not that rubbish
It is a parochial pile of shit with limited tactical and individual skillets compared to Football.
I am from Victoria I do understand the culture around it, hell we are exposed to it 1000 times a day
Cricket is well and truly Australia's National Game with AFL having little impact in QLD and NSW.

I think its great having Macedonians play the national sport, and this is a great thread! Macedonian achievements should be highlighted at every opportunity, God knows the dushmani do it constantly
All my sons have played Aussie rules and soccer as well growing up
And DTG how wonderful to be related to the great Peter!
Well said SoM and Julie, i think noting the achievement's of the Macedonians who play this sport is the main thing. I personally have played the sport of Aussie rules Football for many years and trust me it's not easy. What Frank said is totally stupid because those players would of went through so much years of hard training etc to make it where they are now, i think a small acknowledgement isn't to much to ask for, hey Franky?
Thank's for the support SoM and Julie. And ye being related to Peter Daicos (Daikov) (the Macedonian marvel) even if it is sought of distant related is prety cool, he is a legend of the game.Last edited by Daniel the Great; 10-09-2010, 05:24 PM.

Daniel The Great, Im pretty sure the Daicos family originate from Banica, some stayed there the others went to the Prespa region. They changed their names back to Daikov.

Prolet, could Vasil Varlamos be a Macedonian from Aegean Macedonia? i mean the Greeks don't use the name "Vasil" they use the name "Vasili". He played for the mighty Carlton Blues FC.

Peter Daicos: he played for the Gollingwood Magpies FC. he is from the Lerin area which explains his last name. His nickname is the Macedonian marvel:
