Jom Watch AFL

Salam Sejahtera and Hi everyone ! 

Hope things have been awesome, and that the mid-semester exams are all out of the way already :) If you've been missing our past events,  no need to fret anymore as our next big excursion is now here! UQMSA will be organizing Jom Watch AFL ! , in which we will all be watching and cheering the Brisbane Lions at The Gabba  :D

A bit about Aussie Footy
Australian Rules Football, or Aussie Footy for short, is the one of the most popular sports in this sports-obsessed nation which is Australia. The game itself is a unique blend of soccer, Gaelic football, and rugby, and is considered as one of the unique icons of Australian culture. 

And like surfing in the Gold Coast, or patting a koala at Lone Pine, experiencing a live Footy match is something that should not be missed by anyone in Australia!

Okay, enough with exciting you, details of the event are below :)
