Grassroots players are irrelevant as shown by on & off field success of Melbourne Storm - Elitist swans boast few locals as well. Plenty of talent for RL in Pacific, UK etc.
I have spoken to many English who say they went to an AFL game but had no idea what was going on. So never went again
In this country AFL is bigger than Soccer. Hence why fifa wanted the afl grounds. FIFA also demand no other sport is played at the time of the World Cup.
So a people who know nothing of the game had no idea what was going on ? I’m amazed . I have also spoken to many who loved it. Just depends I guess.
