Re: Looking to play Football.
International is similar to Gaelic but has rules from Australian Rules (Mark, tackling, bigger scoring tees etc).

Re: Looking to play Football.
So, if gridiron, Aussie rules, etc., are classified as football. How come you can use your hands?

Re: Looking to play Football.
SA wasn't, strictly speaking, a colony:
From wiki:
'Following the defeat of the Boers in the Anglo-Boer or South African War (1899–1902), the Union of South Africa was created as a dominion of the British Empire in terms of the South Africa Act 1909, which amalgamated the four previously separate British colonies: Cape Colony, Natal Colony, Transvaal Colony and Orange River Colony. The country became a self-governing nation state within the British Empire, in 1934 following enactment of the Status of the Union Act. The dominion came to an end on 31 May 1961 as the consequence of a 1960 referendum, which legitimised the country becoming a sovereign state named Republic of South Africa. A republican constitution was adopted.'
More debate here:

But we have you guys to thank for apartheid:
http://www.independent.co.uk/voices/apa ... 70856.html
It was two renowned Englishmen, Cecil Rhodes and Winston Churchill, who at crucial moments planted the seeds that were to ripen into policies which deprived black people of democratic rights in South Africa. A third, Jan Smuts - an Afrikaner by birth who became a committed supporter of the British Empire - was also an architect of laws which were later to become the framework of apartheid. Like Churchill, Smuts has a statue in Parliament Square, but in South Africa both will go down as men who destroyed rather than built democracy in the country.'
Ironically, soccer became the sport of the majority racial group, whilst rugby became the white minority national sport, but the one for which SA became best known.

Bitter commonwealth then.
Re: Looking to play Football.
Why would anyone be bitter, The UK is a shit hole and they done us all a favour.
The standard of living in the UK is on par with a developing country.
