Talking Footy

Victorian rules is a better name than Aussie rules. I think tho, it actually was developed based on Gaelic footy so it could be called Gaelic Victorian hybrid bastard rules.

40k in Perth, 46k in Adelaide, 31k in Brisbane this weekend alone

Are they in Victora?

The game was formed in Victoria, it was called Victorian rules for over 100 years, kinda like sticking to your roots and being proud. So much for Victoria's heritage eh?

It's called Rugby because it was played and codified in the town of Rugby.

That I know obviously, I was saying that it called AFL or aka Aussie rules. I prefer Australian football actually with reasons I have stated before, yes it did originate from Vic. Now and has been for years strong in wa, sa, nt, Tassie, parts of act, NSW and qld. Thus it is AFL. We should call NRL NSwrl then, if that sped wants to play it that way or call it where it was invented in north England or wherever.

lame.

The Sport is Rugby League you dope, the comp the Big teams play in is called the National Rugby League.

In the UK and France, the game of Rugby League and Rugby XIII also play in the European Rugby Super League.

The French local comp where they play Rugby League (rugby XIII) is called the LER.

Actually I prefer the super league in the UK. So much more fast paced, exciting, less stoppages and less dry humping for penalties like the lads in NRL

So what if the AFL succeeds, which they will never, but what if the AFL succeeds in getting other nations to play the code?

What thrn dipshit?

This is too funny. As I've said all along Aussie rules, AFL, whatever the fuck these imbeciles in this forum and down at AFL hq wanna call it, their own stupidity is actually ensuring the sport doesn succeed

Marngrook, or alternatively it should be given a Gaelic name, cos that's its heritage. at "it's australias game" what a crock of dogshit
