To me the AFL is the premier competition and Australian Rules is the sport, hence the littlest AFL fan should be punished.

'To you' is irrelevant.

Am I right though?

The AFL call their league and the sport what they want.

No, it means half the country, thats the AFL supporter ones, are wrong in their understanding of the name of their very own sport

Hmm, you seem just as confused despite apparently playing the game. Remember this:

On the other hand though I'd like to make a formal confession about why I play AFL and not League.

....

A few years later I took on the game of AFL.

....

So there's some background info for all those who seem bitter boys who seem so confused about me about playing AFL.

In New South Wales and Queensland, no you're not. We call it AFL. And so do you it seems! Great call out, Beaussie! =D> =D> =D>

I know I made the mistake a few times but that was weeks back and who can blame me if, as Xman says, half the country are doing it. Those AFL fans are misleading milllions but I'm better for it now cos has taught me the appropriate terminology.

We thought you'd know given you were an AFL listed professional footballer!

Well I always knew, it was just lazyness on my part typing AFL in.

You used the term more than once, yet have the nerve to agree with a challenge that attempts to discredit its use!

Hypocrite or fool?

I used to use the term, when i was being lazy/ Now since the BS files were created, I want what you want Xman. An informed, accutate and valid forum and those who dont post in such a way to be punished.

Please Xman, give your littlest friend the BS point and help out site be all it can be.

So, I see you girls are still failing to find Newcastle's AFL club.

So, I see Parra is still failing to understand that AFL means all AR and not just THE AFL. Contrary to King's inaccurate statement based out of personal desire instead of reality.

As has been shown in this thread. One can play AFL in Newscastle. That's how the game is marketed in Newcastle.

Newcastle markets the product incorrectly though. As I stated before, do we want this site to be accurate or not? Just because heaps of AFL supporters dont know the correct term for their code doesnt mean we have to drop to their standards. Parra gets the nod here, bestest and smartest to him.
