With the World Cup coming to an end this Sunday in a heated game between Australia and New Zealand at Suncorp Stadium, a lonely West Aussie in Brisbane just wants to know if this is it.

The AFL fan, who has put up with just about enough rugby league this year, can’t help but feel like it’s been going on forever.

“Back in WA it’s either footy season or cricket season,” 37-year-old Macey Hughes told The Advocate.

“Over here it’s feeling like league season most of the bloody year,” the salty Freo supporter added.

On top of the usual rugby league season, there’s the representative series, State of Origin for QLD vs NSW, and then, on top of that, the Rugby League World Cup.

“But it’s with all the same players, right? Just in different teams, right?” she asked our reporter.

“I love Kalyn Ponga as much as the next girl, but I feel like I’ve seen him in a grand final every second Sunday for the past couple of months!”

“I can’t go to the local pub for a casual wine without some old guy raging at rugby on the TV.”

“And don’t get me started on union. I don’t even fucking know what that is.”
