Talking Footy

Let's get this matter straight and cleared up...

Couple of rugby dry rooters on here (IMcrap1 & wussycat etc)

Use the term fumblers as their main point of argument against us Aussie rules fans.

I believe we have more reasons to use the term against you guys then you do.

Here's my case:

We all know a rugby ball is easier to handle then an AFL ball (difference in grip, weight and waterproof)

Speed also is a factor, as AFL balls travel at much faster speeds and go further distances.

Also don't forget that in most instances you're trying to catch an AFL ball against an opponent or a pack of people. Where as in NRL most of time there isn't as much pressure and/or contest.

Now from the above as you can see I believe that NRL fans should be called the real genuine fumbler

If you guys wish to contest my claim and statements that's fine open for discussion.

As for my fellow Aussie rules fans if there is anything you wish to add be my guest.

In closing, have a nice day real rugby fumblers

Its funny how with their rubber ball in the bum snuffing they struggle to catch a 5 meter throw!

League is a game for genuine retarrds!

Ummm if you don't have anything valid to say then zip it.

Fumbler no1

Lol
One game you are penalised for fumbling .
The other you're not .
Hence why a ball is fumbled continiously in fumbleball


The poor uncos even tried wearing gloves so they could catch .
Oh my

The AFL ball is leather not rubber, is travels at a much faster rate & usualu from a lot longer distance than 5 meters spazza!
League is simply rugby for retarrds!

It's funny the expression was used as s derogatory term - because in RL your not allowed to drop the ball - however most AF posters don't care as we don't get called bumsniffers- I know which one I prefer and it has nothing to do with placing my nose near another persons bum.

Isnt fumbling permitted as long as the ball goes backwards ?

Maybe we should call RL backward fumbleball

We need help to catch the ball .
A basic skill that 8 yr olds can master .

Yeah, those 1% of players who tried a glove then ditched it soon after was really telling.

Backwardball aka uncontested ball is about the easiest ball skill game on earth and has no right to point at other sports

Yep so we made the ball twice as big, made it from dimpled plastic and catch it on our chest on in our hands - oh wait that's RL!
