BBC was just broadcasting lots of video on this. Showed lots of bottle throwing and even some ladies getting in on the fight.
Will have to back up Victors view on some of this. I have several Aussie friends and like some of the Brits I know, there are times that they seem to like getting pissed (drunk) and just fighting. Does not matter who, just have a swing at someone. I have spent a lot of time in Sydney and no problems but that was a couple of years ago.
BBC is saying that they feel that some of the people are mad after the Bali bombing and have had enough. Also, if there are guys from Samoa and Fiji there as Matt's post suggests, it could get interesting. Everyone of them I have known were massive, like 1.8 cm and 120 kilos (6 foot and 240) MINIMUM and could hold their own in any fight.
Could be interesting...
