I'm already trying to explain to Aussie mates at work why Vidmar, Moore and Muscat will be booed relentlessly by a section of heroes at the match.

Nah, that's George W Bush's brother.

I can see the similarities though.

Don't dolphins spend most of their time a few miles off the coast? If so, they'd be in international waters and hence couldn't be classified as a Yank or an Aussie. More citizens of the world really.

Either way I don't expect Flipper to line out for the roos.
Shame really though as it would have added occassion with all his flicks and tricks.

So I heard.

Might be out of his depth against Ireland though.
