@borhan9, I live in Central Queensland. I will be heading to Gold Coast later this year with the family for School holidays. I also follow the Brisbane Lions and Essendon....I do hope the Swans win again this year, really piss the Vics off.
I am not a real big St George fan but I do like Nathan Brown

I went to the skippy film set when I was 10 years old.(33 years ago)with my parents.It was set in a national park in Sydney called kur-in-gai chase national park.Known in the series as Waratah national park.
Waratah Park Earth Sanctuary Pty Ltd
A genuine 'Australian Wildlife Safari' 25 kms north of the city. See rare and endangered species of Australia's unique wildlife roaming free with the old favourites - kangaroos, wallabies of different varieties and bandicoots.
Waratah Park rose to fame as the home of 'Skippy the Bush Kangaroo' - the 1960's TV series. The original set Ranger Headquarters - is still in pristine condition and is now used as an interpretation centre for the park.
Witness how the dedication of a team of volunteers have transformed a caged animal environment into a natural bush habitat, surrounded by a specially designed feral proof fence, and housing a wide variety of Australia's wildlife.
Animals you can see are potaroos, bettongs, sugar gliders, grey kangaroos, a number of varieties of wallabys, various bandicoots and a wide variety of birds.
Ecotours operated 1330 and 1530 by trained guides who will identify Aboriginal Bushtucker, Bush medicine (which you can sample) wildflowers and the ecology of the Sydney region, whilst guiding you through the unique bushland of Kuringai Chase.
Join us at sunset for a guided spotlight tour and watch the changing hues of Kuringai Chase National Park while you enjoy a genine Australian Backyard BBQ before witnessing the local wildlife come out to start their day.
We cater for all types of visitors from single visitors to large groups, education groups, weddings, incentive groups (catering facilities for upto 250) and package travellers.

@borhan9, If you thought friday nights results were good then the Bronco's thrashing (50-6) of Newcastle was great, my tips for next week...Broncos to beat Bullwogs and Melbourne to beat St George with Broncos to take out the Title.
, Well I got my wish. Brisbane Broncos V Melbourne Storm and Sydney Swans V W.C. Eagles.
What I want now is wins by Broncos and Swans. Cheers.

I will gladly take that bet, however as the Brisbane Lions failed badly this season, I am happy that all Melbourne teams missed out.
How good was the Broncos come back in the 2nd half...
Go The BRONCOS
Bad luck, all Sydney teams missed out also!!

@gerry1
they can do substantial damage to cars. one of my friends had his car nearly written off when he hid a kangeroo coming back from a fishing trip. he was travelling close to 100km/h when he hit it.
just for reference, have a look at this video (can be slightly distirbing for some, SO VIEWER DISCRETION ADVISED http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z6rvgirDkjg
that car that hit the kangeroo was travelling around 40-50km/h and look at the damage it took. now just image a direct hit at close to 100km/h
B.T.W this happened during the 2005(or 4) bathurst 1000
