THE GRAVES OF GALLIPOLI L. L. (A. N. Z. A. C.) From, 'The Anzac Book," Cassell & Co., Ltd.. Publishers, London. Special permission to reproduce in this book. This poem is one of many that were written to commemorate the stubborn bravery of the Anzacs, the British soldiers from Australia and New Zealand. These indomitables came half way round the globe at Britain's first call. Their first appearance was in Egypt, where they drove the German--led Turks back into the desert and saved the Suez canal. They were and are officially designated the "Australian and New Zealand Army Corps," a title too long for common use. They have won fame and the world's admiration as the "Anzacs." a word made by running together the first letters of their official title. Australia's own name for her soldier is Bill--Jim. 'The Graves of Gallipoli" is one of the most noble and tender poems that have come to us out of the war http://beck.library.emory.edu/greatwar/poetry/view.php?id=eaton_Eaton016 THE GRAVES OF GALLIPOLI THE herdman wandering by the lonely rills Marks where they lie on the scarred mountain's flanks, Remembering that wild morning when the hills Shook to the roar of guns, and those wild ranks Surged upward from the sea. None tends them. Flowers will come again in spring, And the torn hills and those poor mounds be green. Some bird that sings in English woods may sing To English lads beneath--the wind will keep Its ancient lullaby. Some flower that blooms beside the southern foam May blossom where our dead Australians lie, And comfort them with whispers of their home; And they will dream, beneath the alien sky, Of the Pacific Sea. "Thrice happy they who fell beneath the walls, Under their father's eves," the Trojan said, "Not we who die in exile where who falls Must lie in foreign earth." Alas! our dead Lie buried far away Yet where the brave lies who fell in fight For his dear country, there his country is. And we will mourn them proudly as of right-- For meaner deaths be weeping and loud cries: They died pro patria! Oh, sweet and seemly so to die, indeed, In the high flush of youth and strength and pride. These are our martyrs, and their blood the seed Of nobler futures. 'Twas for us they died. Keep we their memory green. ==== This be their epitaph. "Traveler, south or west, Go, say at home we heard the trumpet call, And answered. Now beside the sea we rest. Our end was happy if our country thrives: Much was demanded. Lo! our store was small-- That which we had we gave--it was our lives." ====

After just one round it is clear that new Parramatta coach Stephen Kearney has overhauled the Eels' attack, defence and attitude. They already look to be a much tougher team. They were very well drilled in New Zealand last weekend with a performance that suggests they will be competitive in every game. They were methodical and controlled. Performing like this regularly throughout the year will have the Eels in line for a top-eight birth. However, Parramatta fans out there hoping to see the Eels playing the type of footy that saw them storm into the grand final just two seasons ago will be disappointed. This is a complete new look for this Parramatta team, with a good performance described as methodical and controlled. From a coach's perspective Kearney is most definitely on the right track. The Eels beat themselves too many times last year. From a fan's perspective, however, I want the scintillating razzle-dazzle of '09 with Jarryd Hayne on the plane … or the train … or however else he wants to get there. Instead, the Eels are falling into line with the grinding style of Kearney's highly successful former club, the Melbourne Storm.
