Australian Football World Tour
The Australian Football World Tour was a series of international rules football matches, organised by football sports broadcaster and former VFL umpire Harry Beitzel in 1967 and 1968.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=History of International Rules Football )〕
==First tour==
The first team was christened "The Galahs" by the Melbourne press after a comment made by the eccentric athletics coach Percy Cerutty, having seen their garish blazers, their slouch hats, and their hats' ostentatious plumes〔A photograph of Bob Skilton, in full regalia appeared on the front cover of the Victorian Football League's March 1968 issue of ''Football Life'' magazine (a thumbnail of the cover appears at Ross (1996), p.238).〕 (deliberately chosen by Beitzel to evoke comparisons with the heroes of the Australian Light Horse Regiments in the Boer War and World War I()) and to the effect that they were "a pack of galahs". The name stuck.〔Burke, 1998, p.12〕
The games were played under the rules of Gaelic football with the single exception that the Australian players were not compelled to "toe" the ball from foot to hand every few yards, and they were allowed to bounce the ball.
