Canberra is top of the league!!!
It appears throwing sandwiches at Julia Gillard is now a national sport.

The Courier Mail reports the seemingly doomed PM has caught a second one, this time from Canberra’s own Lyneham High:

Ms Gillard was walking in a crowded foyer at Lyneham High School – where she was announcing the ACT had signed up to her Gonski reforms – when the salami sandwich was thrown.

It was lobbed from behind, over the top of her head, and landed at her feet.

Asked if she was disappointed about today’s sandwich incident, Ms Gillard joked the thrower “must have thought I was hungry”.

Well that's the high school event - an amateur status. How soon can we get professionals involved and get it to the Olympics? Will there be any distance or accuracy advantage to countries that use unleavened flat bread? We need rules!

Would the sandwich thrower get some points for a hit or would it be scored as a goal?

Wouldn't baloney have been more appropriate?
