AFL really just looks like a comedy skit to all other football codes.

Which is the best football code? Here you can have it out with other football fans.

AFL really just looks like a comedy skit to all other football codes.

Post by GlobalRugbyLeague »

Like where do I start.

The songs they play at the start of games really sounds like a piss take to me compared to the preparations I see at the start of EPL, NFL & NRL games.

Then you have the uniforms. They honestly look just like a couple of male netballers trying to play a rugby code.

Then you have the streamers and cheer
squads on the back of each goal. It honestly looks like something you would see at a 5 year olds birthday party. Cheesy as fark & just plain embarrassing.

And the goals, not 2 goals, no we have to have 6 goals in AFL so it is impossible to miss and you have scorelines like a game of basketball.

Then the boundary rules. There is no boundary line rule so less skill is required.

Crossbars? Nope, kick as high or as low as you want so you are certain to score with extra goals on the side so you just can't miss.

And why can't a player get a line break and bolt from one end of the field to the other like real football codes. It is the dumbest shit I have ever seen having to bounce an oval ball.

Then the reward for catching a high kick is an uncontested shot at 3 goals next to each other. How can you possibly miss?

I could absolutely go on forever how bad this game is.

Yeah I would be insecure too if I was an AFL fan. Just knowing nobody else cares about or takes your sport seriously except for in one small populated country.
