Copyright : 2006, Taylor & Francis ..‘Our wicked foreign game’: Why has Association Football (soccer) not become the main code of football in Australia?∗ Roy Hay Sports and Editorial Services Australia Introduction Soccer, ‘our wicked foreign game’, is not the main code of football in any state in Australia, but it is probably the second in most states if measured by spectator attendance or participation.1 In Victoria, Australian rules is number one, while in New South Wales, rugby league is the dominant code. The phenomenon is not unique to Australia. None of the white dominions of the old British Empire nor the former British colony the United States has soccer as its main code, with the exception of South Africa where the non-white population has taken up Association Football.2 In most of these countries soccer is characterised as a migrants’ game, even though many of the migrants playing or watching the game are of second or later generations. Explanations for the secondary position of soccer in Australia ought therefore to be compared with those for these other countries, and if we seek a comprehensive explanation of this phenomenon then the Australian story ought not to vary too much from those applied to the others, unless it can be clearly shown that Australian experience and conditions were indeed different.3 This article concentrates on the domestic experience in Australia, with a view to introducing and outlining some of the issues which might be drawn into an effective international comparison.

  • JOHNSON Gregory Nuclear Review
    Honourable Jay Weatherill Greg Johnson Premier of South Australia Contact Details Removed The Premier's Office Contact Details Removed 5018 15th floor Contact Details Removed State Administration Centre 12th February 2015 200 Victoria Square Adelaide SA 5000 Risk assessments and issues which need to be thoroughly investigated and publically reported on by the South Australian Government Royal Commission into expanding South Australia's involvement into key elements of the Nuclear Fuel Cycle I would like to introduce my concerns by asking what 'facts' are to be included and what 'facts' are to be omitted in the Commission's terms of reference? It appears from the contradictory comments from the head of the Commission, Kevin Scarce, 'I know the dangers of the (nuclear) industry' and 'how do we convince South Australians that it is safe and what are the benefits of so doing?', that Kevin does not come to his appointment with an open mind. It seems Kevin already knows what's best for us. On the contrary, history demonstrates the nuclear industry does not have a clean safety record! It has also been prone to secrecy and of distorting the 'facts'. We need to remind ourselves that civil nuclear programs worldwide were born out of and have continued to be connected to military / industrial complexes. We also need to be conscious of the 'fact' that over time governments and their members are replaced; some by degrees of democratic process, some through corruption and some by direct or imminent force. You only have to look at the contemporary world to witness changes in circumstances, context, creed, character, type, priorities, policies, practices and behaviours of political parties, leaderships and oppositional groups, to conclude we live in and will likely continue to live in uncertain times.

(Continued from 12 May 2021.) The Hon. S.S. MARSHALL (Dunstan—Premier) (19:31): I rise to speak on the Voluntary Assisted Dying Bill. I support the second reading of this bill. I have supported legislation for assisted dying when it has been before this house previously. I do so again, not because I would avail myself of such laws but because I do not believe that I can deny other South Australians the right to make that choice. In providing this legal option at the end of a person's life, this bill establishes a range of mandatory protections, approvals and reviews to prevent exploitation. I have every respect for those who do not support voluntary assisted dying. I understand their views and their concerns. I have considered the deep and sensitive moral, ethical, legal, medical and professional considerations associated with this question, but it is also important to recognise that with the passage of these laws we will not be entering on the so-called slippery slope.
