Jesse arrived back in Australia today with plenty of fanfare. Media all over him which is huge for a country not that into it. Here is a story from our local tv news. http://wwos.ninemsn.com.au/video.aspx?videoid=7d176d72-6ec5-4513-9119-23d2404b548c

She definitely has no idea about football, but her ppl are well aware of the Media buzz.

Ha. There is only 1 Jesse Williams! but we have 3 others at Juco, and 2 in Us high schools, not bad from one youth program in Australia. I know we can send a punter or a kicker. 3 SEC teams will have Aussie punters next year, and not all trouble like LSU#38.

Yeah, I am still here. Enjoyed every minute of the game, except the minute JW was hurt. Most Aussies would rather meet @thamonstar than the Prime Minister anyway, so she went for street cred. It has been a great cpl of years watching the Tide from up close and afar, and I will continue to be...

I enjoyed seeing the Tide take care of business and was lucky enough to spend it in fine company with the family of everyone's favourite #54. I have enjoyed spending the past 2 years following with even greater interest than previously. Tuscaloosa and the great Bama fans will always be part of...

Roll Tide ! There will be unprecedented interest back here in Oz and rest assured the vast majority will be supporting Bama. Looking forward to a huge game, a dominating performance from Jesse and title #15 back to Tuscaloosa.

Re: Bayou and BCSCG Haikus No Touchdown Jesus Can save you from our Monstar Trust us, he’s Deadly!

Love all the deserved kudos for JW, just to clarify again that he is not Maori though. roll tide, we were all watching with interest from over here.

I did think we got away from the run too much in the third qtr. it had been successful in he first half, so to ignore it was a mistake that could have cost. Final drive obviously was great, perhaps as much execution as play calling. Enjoying the offense being more explosive this year for sure...

Undoubtedly my favourite thing of the coverage was the ridiculous map they showed to illustrate 'how far Jesse had come'. I will excuse the not getting Brisbane in the right spot, but it was hilarious to see the suggestion that rather than fly over the pacific ocean to the US, that he flew...

A big Roll Tide from Brisbane, Australia. Can't wait to watch our boy #54 and the Bama team start the road to 15 right. 10am Gameday for us here, there will be many eyes glued to the Espn coverage. Enjoy the game everyone RTR

In about 1992 I picked up a copy of Football Digest in the bookstore with Curry and Copeland on the cover. Growing up in Brisbane, Australia, that was a Rare find. Followed their progress but it was a 6'4 320lb Monstar that really got me in. Gameday at BDS last year cemented it.

For all of our great qualities as Australians, there is a horrible 'tradition' of what we call 'tall-poppy syndrome'. Cutting ppl down if they get 'too big'. Comments on this article reflect some of that. Ignorance reigns supreme sometimes.

Well, there's plenty here.

In regard to the 'NFL Champ' comment. What you have to realise that often, 'NFL' is the tag given to any american football. It works also here in our Australian Football League (AFL) so that even though the sport is Australian Rules Football, many would call a kid that is a standout footballer...

ROLL TIDE NATIONAL CHAMPS! It was amazing to watch the game, albeit in 100degree heat today, and Australia has never seen such a collection of Crimson and White! Those of us with BDS experience tried to bring the atmosphere to the party with the chants, cheers and the right music. What proud...

Just letting you know there will be more eyes glued to the NCG than any other year down here in oz with players on opposing teams. Interest here in Brisbane is huge and there will be a great gathering of friends and family of JW and another of all the players from his club Bayside Ravens. For a...
