It's like a cross between hockey and murder...

In Ireland, we have a sport called Hurling.
Not to put a fine point on it, but it's basically two teams of fifteen men, each man armed with a heavy ash stick, whalloping a ball made of hard, solid leather around a pitch for 70 minutes. And they started wearing helmets in the last few years. It's been reasonably popular in Ireland for a while.

And recently, it's been exported to the UK by Sky.

The response of the English, is quite amusing. Especially the image of Wayne Rooney.....

I like how the Aussie girl is initially bewildered in her tweets. Made me laugh thinking, "This coming from someone living in the land of Death?"

In the not-too-distant future, there will be no wars.  But there will be ... Rollerball."Jon-a-than!  Jon-a-than!  Jon-a-than!"
