I had my first dose of Australia rules football here. Surprisingly, it is pretty absorbing and the rules seem simple enough for me to understand it.
The home team, Sydney Swans lost to St. Kilda. It was a close match, exciting enough for me to shout nonsense.
For its size, the stadium was pretty quite. Yes, part of the reason is that the stadium was not even three quarters full. The bigger reason is probably that the crowd, I can say with supreme confidence, was not as crazy as one in Ann Arbor.
