I think if AFL required one or two long high kicks a game it may not be such an issue - but the nature of the game is quite different to RL or RU - where it mainly consists of flat throws. If AFL was mainly all handballs for instance it is probably not such an issue.

while there is alot of kicking AFL i totally agree on that (consisting of around 220 plus per team on average.
so yes a windy day would effect more an AFL match than NRL (good point)

NRL have around 50 to 60 kicks per game (long to high kicks)
Plus conversations after each try and FG
so depending on the scoring it will vary.

The long bombs are meant to be as difficult as possible for the opposition to take - so the wind would be an advantage for the main - so take these out of the equation. and remember, the main way of scoring in AFL is through kicking the ball - usually from a long distance - and passing is pivotal too. Played many a game in wet and windy conditions - and the go ewas to handball - kick long and rove packs - but when it is going backwards - and seen that too - and you are at the elite level - and this is a common thing down there - then a roof is a must. I think that is the issue - conditions like this on far too many occasions. I wonder for NT stadium they'll request air conditioning lol.


Anyway - on the stadium - will the AFL scrap the team? Will it be a line in the sand? I think the AFL are not wanting this but are prepared to go there - releases them of any complicity of them not allowing a team in Tassie as they can put the blame back squarely on the government and not being able to get their house in order.

I suspect that the greens and cross benchers opposed will back a government however when it comes to voting on the stadium with the roof they can vote against it - however as Labor and Liberals are fo the stadium they'll have the votes. Isn't there also fines in place in the agreement if not done by a certain stage?

give the computer games a rest, they are not a realistic representation of reality! Eddie

no its nothing like you claim! its funny enough watching NRL players constantly drop the ball and recieve penalties for tap on from short passes, or watch the ball bounce off the cheast of the NRL player un opposed while the oppostion has just taken a punt down the field after using up all the current tackels

oh they're spot on spambot

club,state and national Rugby League and Union champions proved the difference in the 2 codes and AFL was far more skilful and difficult to play. they couldnt make it or compete against kids in low ranked sides

both players said they're not clowns & would prefer to play a ... real.. sport & left
Rexonas greatest challenge was the defining proof
when the best bumbles & stumbles players were being outskilled by & were less athletic then..homosexual spring board divers

they were athletes , & athletes have no place wearing singlets & fumbling & bumbling around looking like baboons from the zoo
The only fact is the stumbling turd show from Vicdopia was that pathetic, so lacking in any cred... that it turned its comp into a circus & chased footballers from another code to play a game they'd probably never seen let alone played , to try & gain some relevance

but like most things the bumbling baboon show tries
they failed
