He filled them with hot air. :D

What would have sucked was if he hit the pillar after the first turn.

That's Australia Rules. We also have two codes of Rugby that we play here. The field length for Rugby is 100 metres.

Actually, rugby isn't football though

However, we do have soccer as it's known here and in the US ... which is known as football everywhere else in the world ... and the length of one of these ... around 90 and 120 metres
