Fastest Shearers Ever!

The music clip accompanying this video is called 'Shearers' Dream' It is taken from a vinyl album by The Original Bushwhackers And Bullockies Band. Please note:NOW AVAILABLE AS CD/DOWNLOAD from www.storytellers.com.au The music is in the original tempo but the video is what I like to call a 'temporally enhanced' version!

If I hadn't seen it with my own eyes, I wouldn't have believed it either ! And sorry about our biased judges. We in Geelong have the similar problems with Melbourne team biased AFL umpires.... I can also empathise with your frustration with our lack of participation in your world leading shearing patterns. Why does the world not convert to Aussie Rules football, it should be the Universal game!

@akadpk59 Aussie shearers arnt a joke around the world, i know a lot that could kick your arse on xbreds. if you spend any lenth of time shearing merinos in aussie u would realise that alot of the differences in there technique r a big advantage on tough merinos, and make a much tidier job than some rough kiwi shearers

@akadpk59 come on now mate what would be the point of developing a shearing pattern that wasn't for our nations sheep? Australian sheep grow WOOL, beautiful thing that, not like that whispy stuff coming off those NZ sheep.

u ozzie shearers r a joke around the world. u even have to put it in fast forward to show ur patheticness. ur shows r the most unprofessional in the world with one eyed judges that r still living in the past. ur shearing pattern only suit merinos yet the new zealand one suits them too and all the rest of the world breeds. get with the times
