Clean site, but does not validate yet. Otherwise, good work (esp for free!). I hope that you get at least something from the work (if just popularity).

I'm reasonably bad with validation
What are the main issues?

Scary at first, but not after you dig around a bit. At first, this gives an insane number of problems:
http://validator.w3.org/check?uri=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.hdfcraiders.com.au%2F&charset=(detect+automatically)&doctype=Inline&ss=1&group=1&user-agent=W3C_Validator%2F1.654 (16 errors, 30 warnings).
Then, we just change the statement "<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC" to "<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC" (lowercase html), and that takes care of most problems. Yes, it is that stupid.

128 the natural amphitheatre is filled with those who’ve made watching
129 football there a regular and popular pastime. Read more about
so, you have duplicate div tag names, and you are not using escape characters (/') and the like.

Then, whenever you feel like it, a bit of meta tags and SEO will not hurt. (meta tags are an option as a tab when you are editing a page in CMSMS)
