Funny but I reckon that's an uninformed assessment Raider. It is something I would have agreed with before I played and watched the sport live. I've also coached and umpired the sport which has built my knowledge of it. Hi TLPG
I guess it's like any sport, it can look like chaos befoe you know the rules and structure.
I'd bet you've never been to a game live or played it before?
On the topic I think neither sport is more exciting than the other, both are awesome when played at the top level and the contest is good.

Re: AFL is more exciting then league
No that looks like the most biased assessment I've ever seen with absolutely zero experience behind it. And when I last checked, more than half the country supports it. Way more.Raiderdave wrote:AFL looks like a mad womens t.urd

Don't you just love how NRL supporters claim all of NSW and QLD as their heartland. I along with many others who grew up on Rugby League in NSW have fully converted to Australian Football. I rarely even watch a game of Rugby League these days. I've no doubt I'm not alone. Oh and BTW, Radierdave, how would you explain the Swans and Lions getting bigger crowds, larger membership bases and bigger sponsorship deals than the NRL clubs in NSW and QLD. :P

Now now you two. You are both sliding into your hypocritical personalities once again.Beaussie wrote:Don't you just love how NRL supporters claim all of NSW and QLD as their heartland.
TLPG how did you "check" that "way more" "than half" the country supports AFL? > So you're suggesting that about 15-16million people in this country support AFL? Funny how you claim this immediately after stating raiderdave made the most bias comment
And Beaussie, I'm not surprised at all by the hypocrisy oozing out of your quote. You've basically claimed 90% of the nation is AFL heartland before! Where is that little invalid and dodgy map of Australia outlining afl heartland you used years??
