Comment on Barnaby Joyce admits watching wrong Matildas game after pub showed July friendly

Enough of a bandwagon follower to know that the Matildas were playing Saturday afternoon. But not enough to know they were playing France.
It’s a bit telling to see how he uses social media, also. He appears to see it as a place to talk. Not a place to interact. Or he’d know that nobody else in the world was talking about a Matildas victory when he was.

The game he was watching a replay of was against France, it was just a friendly before the World Cup.

Joyce was at the Commercial Hotel in Walcha, and staff at the pub confirmed to Guardian Australia that Joyce did watch the wrong match.
“We hadn’t even realised until today that it was the wrong match. The crowd didn’t notice either, it’s been news to us.”
Looks like the whole pub was duped.

Yes, in the footage he uploaded to social media you can see about 30 other people watching the game.
