I cam take your point re kicking at goal. I reckon the point actually adds to the game in a way that no other game does with the exception of gaelic football. I think it rewards the dominant side but also punishes them if too many points. The scoring area for AFL is also from point post to point post with more points scored the closer to the middle.. a goal.

Also, no cross bar but you also have an oval and see some great goals scored fron amazing angles. It is just a totally different game to rl in most ways. There are a lot of kicks at goal also and a lot from 50 out... on the run also etc.

The point re being on the line still being in. Not sure what that has to do with skill in AFL. Two different games with different rules. AFL also has 18 players a side and is a man on man 360 game on a big ground. These are all different so not sure why touching the line as oppossed to being over as an inteoretation of out makes the game less skilled?

Re dropping the ball as much as you like. Whilst not completely true again, you are trying to compare AFL to rl which are nothing whatsoevet alike. It is not like comparing rl and ru... which is where i think this whole rl v AFL comes from... the whole which is better. Now ru is dying a slow death in this country i think AFL has filled that void in sydney at least. It would be like an AFL person saying rl is unskilled as you only have to throw the ball not handball it or that you can run without bouncing it... both stupid arguements trying to judge rl by another games rules.

Players of agl level are highly skilled. At the highest level of any sport there are the best of the best who can do things others cant. Thats why they are at the top. Same goes for any footballers. Maybe that is where soccer and union may struggle as the local comp for them maybe dont get the best in the world. For AFL and nrl it is the elite comp. ?

AFL is the only oval football code that you can drop the ball as much as you like and not be penalised.
Grid Iron your penalised
Rugby League your penalised
Rugby Union your penalised

You really are truly in denial that this is not a poor skill rule of AFL.

AFL is the only football code with no crossbars and extra side goals.

This makes AFL the easiest goal scoring game by a mile.

Soccer goals are more hard to score.
Rugby code goals are harder to score.
Grid Iron goals are harder to score.

THESE FACTS MORE THAN PROVE AFL IS THE MOST POORLY SKILLED FOOTBALL CODE EVER CREATED.

Lol says the fan of league a dumbed down version of union.
Run with the ball under your arm several meters in a forward direction, make a 5 meter throw to your left or right , the repeat the process several times. Then jump on the ball over the ground, when passed the score line! Its not hard to miss as its the width of the field

Well dont Thick shit nfi as per usual

Actually NRL players often run with the ball in one hand. Something AFL ganglys don't seem to do.

If scoring over a line is so easy in League, Union and Grid Iron.

Why does AFL players score more points than all other football codes?

Pretty much proved you wrong in one question my friend.
