Publishers Description: In Australia, nothing excites such passion as the tribal loyalties generated by Aussie Rules. Nothing so unites people, nothing so divides them. In this book, Australias best writers--women and men, young and old, participants and non-participants--share their oval dreams. These reflections on Australian football range from witty and affectionate reminiscences and expressions of hope for the future to statements of deep alienation and betrayal. This innovative and entertaining collection opens a new window on football and its role in Australian culture and society.
