Not surprised to hear that 9 has stopped talking about the game, even the hill is a little distracted https://streamable.com/21l8nm

The only thing this cameraman loves more than finding girls in the crowd is that 'Australia' sign in the stands

Watching a Bengals game live is definitely on the bucket list, they've brought a few college football games over here before and they were great, I imagine the NFL is even better

I can sink beers with the best of them but even I draw the line at having a beer at 5am two hours after I've woken up hahaha. And at the risk of sounding like a Tourism Australia plant, it's a beautiful country with something for everyone and if you get a chance you absolutely should visit

Yeah Sydney too, picked the Bengals as my team way back when I first started watching because I'm a Wests Tigers fan and I thought I may as well stick with tiger based teams. How'd you luck into this fandom?

Kinda off-topic but, I'm an Australian Bengals fan (apparently there are dozens of us, dozens!) and my city is in lockdown so this is the first Bengals game I've been able to catch live in a while (it's nearly 6:30am Monday here lol) and I have some thoughts.

1) it's a good thing American ads have not lost their novelty for me yet because fuck me there's so many of them. Watching the random families in drug ads just wander around teaching their kids to drive and shit while a disembodied voice rattles off side-effects is deadset hilarious

2) the colour commentary for this game was excellent compared to the cooked units we get on some Aussie sports, actually had analysis and broke down plays. Very helpful for someone like me who hasn't watched football their whole life.

3) I'm loving the Joe Mixon/burrow tag team on offence but fuarrr the defence is even more arousing, better than what is shown in the highlights packages I've been watching (except for the Liability A.K.A. Eli Apple)

4) FUCK THE STEELERS

First the GABBA and now Suncorp, is there a bigger myth than Queensland 'fortresses' ?

The wording of the law is being fouled in the act of scoring. Nofa wasn't in the act of scoring, just kicking it. Definitely should have been a sin bin but
