International Rules
Australia played Ireland in the two test 2008 International Rules Series. This series was played in Australia at Subiaco Oval and at the Melbourne Cricket Ground at the end of October. In 2007 the International Rules series was aborted by the Irish after they accused the Australians of being too rough in the previous series held in Ireland. However after discussions between the teams they have decided to hold the 2008 series with some rule changes.

Famous quotes containing the word rules:
“... geometry became a symbol for human relations, except that it was better, because in geometry things never go bad. If certain things occur, if certain lines meet, an angle is born. You cannot fail. It’s not going to fail; it is eternal. I found in rules of mathematics a peace and a trust that I could not place in human beings. This sublimation was total and remained total. Thus, I’m able to avoid or manipulate or process pain.”
—Louise Bourgeois (b. 1911)
