Maybe they should, at least it is the real sport, and not a manufactured one just to keep them fit. I suppose the cricketers could take up skipping, really the same outcome as AFL just there to keep them fit.

Except an average of 36k fans wouldnt turn up to watch skipping. AFL shits all over all other sports in Australia for attendances

To be a proper football code you have to play on a rectangular field.

To be a real football code you only have 2 goals not 6.

Real football codes have crossbars on their goals.

Real football codes don't ever get a ball to be thrown in backwards when it goes out.

A good football code does not reward stupidity like a point for missing.

Real football codes are played professionally in more than one country. E.g Gridiron, Canada & the U.S.A.

Real footballers don't dress like netballers.

Real football codes don't have funny people doing fingure signs when you score.

A real football code never has scores in the hundreds.

So yep.. :-k I don't think AFL can be classified as a real football code.
I not too sure of your cognitive ability to answer this,
But here goes.....
Shouldn't a "real" football code actually kick the ball more than a dozen times by half a dozen players in a game?
Most of the time less.
You guys use your hands with goal kicks. It's football not fumble ball.

At least goal kicks in other oval football codes are off a tee. Not constantly with your hands all the time.

Yep AFL is a fake football code. :mrgreen:

AFL should take soccer's FIFA to court for stealing the name football.
Anyway in Australia, Friday Night Football and Saturday Night football on television will never never mean your going to sit down to a game of soccer.

Fail dismally, as in getting a point when you miss a shot at goal?
:(/

Yep AFL is a real football code, but we throw the ball in backwards when it goes out onto a round field with 6 goals. :drunk: :drunk:

What drugs were you Victorians on when you came up with those rules for a game of football? :lol: :lol:
