How would you make AFL a less embarrassing looking game?

Lol
Is it April 1 ?

It is making steady progress though ... a few ups and downs but trajectory is solId.

We're seeing the women's league and women's football growing and afl has a niche market in Sydney and a pretty good market in south east qld ... looking at the amount of teams and leagues. Compare that to 30 years ago... just the exposure alone is considerable.

Still ignoring my comments about the rubber ball from he nrlol

Give the nrlol some leather footballs to use and let's see those incos fumble the ball even more than they do the rubber one from those 6 meter side way throws

[AFLcrap1]

I didn't ignore
I posted a pic of a fumbler having to wear a glove .
Lol you ignored that

[ParraEelsNRL]

The game is making such steady and relentless progress against League which is completely unable to show its face outside its haven states that reason would argue "Let it rip"

Yet we just had a brand new team from North America play yesterday in the English pro set up, yeah going backwards.

Lol
The afl propaganda machine gets them in all the time

[leeroy*NRL*]

Definitely a reduction in interchange..

no more throw in's..

you kick it out (the other team gets the ball)

Paying the MARK.. needs to be longer than 0.5 of second..
some calls I have seen are a complete joke.

Lol you ignored that

You still ignored my question! Just tried to deflect
Most of the players that wear the gloves are paid by sponsors to do so

An afl ball is smaller, made of leather not rubber and travels as a much faster pace than a nrlol ball, as well as travels much longer distances than 6 meters in some cases 60 plus for a player to attempt to mark it as well as more often than not he will have an opposition player attempting to spoil it, the nrlol player does not


So again your are just point out how ignorant and stupid you are

[Fred]

Do players still wear gloves. I think it was only the odd forward wasnt it?

[leagueiscrap]

Not many of them any more. In the past many of the players were paid good money to wear them, but not sure about that now.
The odd key position player maybe. If anything more so it's players that wear them is to protect current or past finger or hand injuries

[Fred]

I thought it was just forwards as it actually impacted your ability to handle the ball. Hence those forwards that did wear them took them off when kicking for goal.

[Swans4ever]

Have them line up on opposite sides of the ground and run into each other 5 times before kicking it. Don't allow the ball carroer to be striped of the ball if more than 1 tackler. Allow players who are tackled to simply just go to ground and hold the ball ... and allow them to maintain possession.


Seriously though ... two completely different games. A juvenile question at best that tries to view another game from the perspective of another.

Very juvenile Fred, they want every game to be the samd for some reason.

[Swans4ever]

I'd improve fumbleball by banning bananas at grounds

& banning their racist supporters from posting their racist crap on sports forums.
Glad I could help

You cant help your self can you FFS you are a f**k wit!

[Swans4ever]

Lol
Rl players never had to wear GRIP gloves to help them catch

Checkmate dingbat

Yeah nd RL players used to wear hockey pads forgot that little tid bit didnt you.

[Swans4ever]

This is a pointless thread nothing but the usualy RL posters who dont like the game making up criticisms. Im just about sick of this forum's BS. Want to argue about a specific point fine but this is just BS!
