who were those 2 NRL champions who played for GWS and GCS who couldnt get a game in a team filled with string bean kids?
if the AFL players look unskilled and unco to you the League players would had looked like a bunch of disabled turkeys on an oval
AFL players are the only ones looking disabled. You can drop the ball as much as you like in AFL. Then they are giving points in AFL for hitting the upright bars and even points for when you completely miss.
Honestly the first time I saw a game of AFL I thought this would have to be the dumbest shit I have ever seen. You guys even remove the crossbars to make it even easier to score.

AFL is not even real football code lol.. Just a bunch of male netballers trying to play a 4 year olds game on a cricket field.
League the players throw the bas shot passes side ways and kick the ball off a plastic cup when going for goal and your saying AFL isnt football!

skill wise if the AFL players look, Isreal Folau GWS and Hunt for the GWS top line NRL players, Folau represented hit state and country in Union and League looked like disabled turkeys and wouldn't match it against thise skinny kids that played in low finishing sides so the continued continued analogy of AFL being unskilled only proves that League is less skilled! but hey, jogging up and down a pitch in a line with your team mates in a straight line, throwing and catching a ball on the odd occasionally might look impressive to some
If AFL is so skilled, why is it so easy to score then?

Why has no AFL player ever made first grade NRL when trying?

Why has no AFL player ever won a boxing match against a NRL player? Sonny Bill Williams & Mal Meninga both knocked out AFL players in the boxing ring.

Why is an NRL field goal more difficult to score than any goal in the AFL?

Why does AFL let you drop the ball and play on? You don't even have to catch in AFL.

Why does AFL let you put your foot on the boundary line and play on?

Bro there is not one single thing in AFL that is more difficult than Rugby League. Every skill in AFL is lower value.

AFL can"t even get another country to like or play their sport. Says it all lol :badgrin:

If AFL is so skilled, why is it so easy to score then? they are the rules! not every game needs rock apes to run at each other

Why has no AFL player ever made first grade NRL when trying? mostly different body types, & why would they want to play league of all sports

tv shows again

Why is an NRL field goal more difficult to score than any goal in the AFL? FFS meat head question, different games, different rules
why do they call NRL football when they throw it, and when they kick for goal why do they use a plastic cup

Why does AFL let you drop the ball and play on? You don't even have to catch in AFL.
is would be boring as shit game like league if they stop the game all the time like league each time they fumble the ball

Why does AFL let you put your foot on the boundary line and play on?
the ball has to stay in. its like you have

Bro there is not one single thing in AFL that is more difficult than Rugby League. Every skill in AFL is lower value.
league they throw the ball side ways to there opponent shot distances un opposed might be considered skillful! lol
almost no area is more skillfull than the AFL, ffs the AFL ball is a small ball made from leather, the league ball is larger and made from rubber

AFL can"t even get another country to like or play their sport. Says it all lol :badgrin:
your sport is a rip off from union that is a European sport played around the world. considering that the NRL is the only full professional league comp is more a funnier situation than you asking why AFL doesnt dominate the world sporting land scape

Australians haven't been around as long as Europeans have and haven't exactly settled round the world like the europeans have for thousand's of year's

that final questions only sums up how limited knowledge or ability to think to understand anything past counting to 6 and the predictability of league

So getting points for missing a shot at a goal with no crossbar is skilled is it? :lol: :lol: =D =D

The fact AFL can't even get one other country to like or play their game says it all.

Also the fact that no AFL player as ever made first grade NRL. We aren't pinching your players because we know they are way below the elite sporting level required.
Yet AFL was approaching numerous NRL players to switch codes.

why should it model it self on rugby for a cross bar and throw the ball side ways? it would be boring as batshit it if was.
not every one likes simple, predictable low skilled games like league!

the AFL poached 2 of the leagues better players for marketing tools both turned out looking like disables turkeys, Folau went off to union and represented Australia and Tonga also in that code.

League punches players from other codes also! Special Ed

Its not as easy as it looks. And you dont have big crowds distracting you most of the time.
Why has no AFL player ever made first grade NRL when trying?
Has any actual AFL player ever tried? Adrian Barich had finished his AFL career before going to the Reds.
Why has no AFL player ever won a boxing match against a NRL player? Sonny Bill Williams & Mal Meninga both knocked out AFL players in the boxing ring.
Because its a novelty.

thats not true at all.

Because its not rugby.

Sure I mean you have addressed ALL the skills used in the AFL in your post so it must be so.

setting aside the 17 or so countries represented in the International Cup, the AFL hasnt really tried nor has any inclination to try.

The AFL has tested the waters in New Zealand many times with exhibition matches which was a complete flop. Crowds just kept falling every match.

Are you trying tell me an AFL shot at goal is more difficult than an NRL field goal? It is common sense to everyone that having no crossbars in AFL and being given points even when you hit the uprights makes things a whole lot easier.

If AFL goals are so difficult to score why do you get scores in the 100's? It's not hard to score in AFL.

How many points would be scored in AFL if you had an NRL goal with field goal rules? Those AFL players would be missing at least 70% of shots at goal.

St Kida tested the waters with AFL approval. as soon as Wellington Council pulled the plug the AFL left.

Really depends on the field goal. You kicking on the run from 55m out with two or three dudes coming at you?
If AFL goals are so difficult to score why do you get scores in the 100's? It's not hard to score in AFL.
Game goes for longer, field is much larger and there are many, many places and ways to kick goals.
How many points would be scored in AFL if you had an NRL goal with field goal rules? Those AFL players would be missing at least 70% of shots at goal.
Besides the fact theres no evidence for this, Who cares? If they wanted to play rugby, they wouldnt have created AFL in the 1850s.
