The Last Tackle in Philadelphia


Recommended Posts


This Toronto club sure is media-savvy.

 

Agreed. Nice video.

I don't know how it will end, but even if they fail, it won't be for lack of trying.

 

Great stuff overall.

Looks good. Some of those athletes were huge and muscular.

I wonder how many Americans can easily understand the uk accents?

Judging by a TV programme I watched the other day they're one step on from Dick Van Dyke.

The villain was supposed to be from Manchester and had a London accent!

I genuinely struggle to understand the accent of some of our players (eg JJB.)

My wife was watching a B'n'W film about Amy Johnson the other day - she famously is from Hull. Her husband/co-pilot/ rival for various early aviation awards was Australian. In the film, they both had those plummy newsreel accents that Harry Enfield used to send up.

Judging by the above she must be from Beverly! :biggrin:

I'm from Hull but not with plummy accent. The Yanks tend to understand me fine. Aussies on the other hand have cloth ears.

 

Exactly the same. Have no problem with the yanks but aussies...no chance.

Based on my own experience probably none.

Unless you start doing your Hugh Grant impression.

Most people think your an Aussie, Scottish or Irish.

But with Game of Thrones that might have changed a bit.

Very much so. The slow motion collision footage is excellent.It shows they know how to capture the physicality of the sport for a new audience.

 

We can learn from them.
