This Australian tonal usage is now pervasive throughout Irish sport, btw, presumably through the influence of your rugby coaches.
― zvookster, Wednesday, 17 February 2016 04:24 (eight years ago) link
Incidentally there's a rough equivalent with English working class football people, where they'll suddenly say, "but no" and follow it with something serious, as if switching from a BANTER mode that often wasn't actually present.

But seriously, how did Australia get away with not doing putting a supergroup together to fight hunger in the 80s? UK did. USA did. CANADA DID, WITH VERSES IN FRENCH EVEN.
You had the Peter Garrett, Colin Hay, the INXS dudes, Olivia Newton John... Could've called it "Southern Cross (To Bear)" or something like that.

Can any fellow Australian interpret this for me? Maybe it's regional:
"whazzat mate? You want me to give you a fair go? There's no need to bung it on with me, you stunned mullet. Your pals left you like a shag on the rock. You managed to sneak by the doorman but I know a ring-in when I see one. Once I reach into my utility pouch it's all over for you. You've got me hopping mad now."― Neanderthal, Saturday, March 26, 2016 12:12 PM (9 hours ago) Bookmark Flag Post Permalink

"What was that, good sir? Do you implore justice in my judgement? Sir, you are an imbecile and, as such, your buffoonery is quite transparent. Your friends left you complete alone. You may have initially fooled them into acceptance but I can detect a charlatan when I see one. Prepare for the end, good sir. It will come at the hands of an item in my gentleman's pouch. Possibly a tool of some sort. You have certainly vexed me. "
