Bob Hawke skulls beer at SCG Australia vs India

[dlan1500]

People say theres not much difference between a labor or liberal government these days. But the one real difference is that labor politicans are more down to earth then the liberal. Theres Hawke having a beer with the masses while John is up in the stands probably having a moe't.

[mikalakicevic]

Skulling a beer!! Now THAT'S how we win with democracy!!!

[DeathByTarantula]

Bob Hawke: The only prime minister's autograph that I'd show to my mates!

[Saighu]

what are the crowd shouting?

[afitzge4]

@aeth0 one that we know of... skulling booze like a yob... well i guess he is a bit of a yob. why do we aussies expect the world to take us seriously when pillocks like HAwke behave like he's on schoolies week? Come back with a proper comment after yu grow some pubes

[Lewispengelly]

@afitzge4 I think people like a man they can relate to more then anything.. a man of the people.. why shouldn't he skull a beer like everyone else in the world has?. He's in his 80's, and he isn't in politics, let the man do what ever he wants. And i don't know how small your balls were at schoolies, but i had a lot more then one drink..

[afitzge4]

@infokill go wrap yerself around a tree, just make sure yu don't take anyone else with you

btw, yu wish i was a girl!

[mithilag]

great angle you captured this from!!

[DeadlyO3O1]

Only in Australia.

[TheYankeeman09]

I think some people thought it was a fight

[afitzge4]

And we need to further glorify irresponsible alcohol use in this country because???

I can't believe I voted for this clown back in the day.

[infokill]

@afitzge4 go and have a glass of milk you girl.

[aeth0]

@afitzge4 Irresponsible? He only had one.

[Golden92]

[KUPHSER]

[traviszildjianbarker]

hahahaha i fucking LOVE the yobbos!!!!

[manlyfanatic]

what a champ its become an annual thing, to people who dont like it dont worry your probably part of some bullshit civil liberty group and will get sculling banned because of it. Go bob, live forever

[supafly1983]

@gusset08 Stop trolling

[justwatchmate]

this is why our country is going downhill.........not enough bob hawkes around any more....

[ljharry75]

Can you Imagine that 4 eyed little scrote Johnny trying to skol a beer? Bob was a better pisshead, cricketer, and PM than the Bennelong bumboy could ever hope

[intensual]

Not a hard streatch for the silly old bugger lol

[aussietv2]

Bob's asking where he can buy a Kebab.

[cartsau]

Love It! Top Bloke :)

[insmo]

couldn't see anything til I realised a bunch of cops were surrounding someone :)

[richierichauz]

can't see jack shit. there's a much better vid doing the rounds. Remove.

[Spanrz]

@richierichauz Dude 0:06 Open your eyes!

[nakedtowel]

:26 celebratory hi 5 for awesomeness achieved.

[rhwill68]

@nakedtowel Hi 5 for a great no hoper who did nothing for this country

[ARSENICgrass]

the awkward moment... when the drink is poisoned

[rhwill68]

@ARSENICgrass I wish

[skimface]

Who gave him the beer?, and how did he know exactly what was in it? Looks very risky. . .

[hartstarter]

hawke skulling beer in the crowd deadset aussie legend.John Howard sipping tea in the members un-Austalian

[Insidious1933]

That cup will end up on eBay.

[pbawesome1312]

John Howard - sport loving (no good at playing it though), patriotic, top bloke. Bob Hawke - Beer drinking, fun loving, all round legend. Julia Gillard - patronising and lying.

No wonder there were only two prime ministers whose names were being chanted.

[rhwill68]

@pbawesome1312 Mate you should get a life... Hawke is the loser..Gillard has the Guts

[wellwellwellall]

@rhwill68 gillard has nothing. I would think she is fighting for her position now. She went against the advise of her mentor

[Spanrz]

@rhwill68 You are blind! She won't get back in......And Abbott won't get in either! But that stops at nothing than watching an Ex-PM down a beer.

[williamgeorgeshaw]

what's being chanted? we want....?

[plcains]

@williamgeorgeshaw

'We want John'. John Howard was sitting in the stands above...

[rhwill68]

@plcains Yep at least he was a leader

[TheChazz1225]

Bob Hawke is an Aussie Legend.

[rhwill68]

@TheChazz1225 Bob Hawke is a Aussie Loser of the highest order

[gusset08]

@TheChazz1225 This is classless - an ex elderly leader of a 1st world country sculling beer like a bogan. This is a great image to send around the world - not.

[95283525]

@gusset08 you worry to much, chill out and skull a beer

[rhyzo99]

@gusset08 get over it

[redimade]

@gusset08 lighten up ididot

[LilleyAdam]

@gusset08 like it or not, it's the comic image the world already has of us. The fact that it's the ex PM just fulfils that, they expect nothing less. You do know he used to hold the world record for sculling a yard glass don't you?

[blackmourning666]

@gusset08 your negative reaction is un-australian and something that one would expect from either an Indian or a die hard Liberal supporter.

Bob Hawke is an australian icon and has as much right as any retiree to enjoy a beer at the cricket. As for John Howard....the SCG crowd spoke for the nation by giving him an almighty BOOOO !

are you one of those wankers that cried when Howard got the arse then got all excited about Abbott, before defeat was snatched from the hands of victory?

[khunboehj]

go bob go!
