lol John Lynch saying "mate" sounded like the equivalent of a dorky dad trying to use ebonics.
Look Americans should not try to do Australian accents. It just does not work, unless you are Robin Williams he came mighty close but no one else has.
As for the Aussie Aussie Aussie Oi Oi Oi, just don't do that either. It was cute they did it here but generally it is what the bogans do - like those really deep wood hillbilly deliverance banjo playing types but the Australian equivalent.
This guy Mitch is the real deal and he will limit the damage when we are out of field goal range and keep them pinned within their ten. That is why Lynch, Shanahan and York are pumped.
I thought Robert Downey Jr did pretty good in Tropic Thunder.
As for the Aussie, Aussie , Aussie thing, I guess it could be seen as a bit cringy but this is all about chasing an inflated pigskin around and advancing it past an imaginary line so I see it as a bit of fun and don't take it too seriously. These guys are all footballers (ie. bogans) in one way or another after all, haha.
