Sitting on the fence here. Loved the Welcome to Country for the Matildas QF v France but the SF v England was not very good Duncan Smith

Yes, it's become overly excessive. Nowadays, I'm not fond of constantly having to tolerate a "welcome to my own country" scenario at every event!

Nah! I'm hooked on the welcome to country! I always make sure I've got the TV on to catch it before any game. It's totally our thing and we're lucky to be welcomed like that every time. I'm stoked for the world to witness our badass ancient culture.

I've only dipped in and out of the country around 10 times. But I've been greeted like a thousand times - a proper welcome should also come with some grub...
