That is not really news. There have been so many references to boxing kangaroos over the last 100 years that every display has probably been used many times before. Including comic book stories.

I clicked on the box expecting to see it....but they played the floods in Charleville and St George on sunrise and i was more interested in that.
Cheers Kev.

Looks like its been cancelled and quite rightly so.

It seems mainly because Kraft dont want too much bad publicity.

G'Day All,
What a bloody joke ,when Hey Hey Saturday ran that old clip of red faces last year about Micheal Jackson the yanks were up in arms an calling us racist but they can see no harm in some bloody idiot punching the **** out of a kangaroo while his handler hold him back .If the American think this is fun I feel sorry for them, I know if the handler had let the roo go I know who would have come off second best and it would not have been the roo
