I enjoy AFL, league is my favourite code. The AFL do so many off field things better than the NRL. The Brownlow, the draft, weekly analysis, grand final week, honouring past champions just to name a few.
It's fun to play, but it has to be one of the worst spectacles to watch in professional sport around the world.
It's a scrappy mess and a glorified game of scrambles, how they get so many to a game truly astounds me. I've been to a couple of live games and unless there's some action in front you, you can't see a goddamm thing around that huge field, and all people are doing is booing and screaming "BALL".
I will literally watching anything else except AFL.
"Yeah, plus I aint no fool. Sydney Swans is just South Melbourne Swans. They dont represent me or anything to do with my upbringing. Footy was always league and afl was not even a thing."
"Gambling is an evil industry that preys on the vulnerable and Australians lose more per capita by far than any other country in the world.
We are the biggest losers in the world. Not a title we want to win.
It destroys people, families and lives.…"
"If you have any family members in the younger demographic, you could ask and would know Teddy Swims is probably the hottest act or one of the hottest acts among the younger demographic. I mean sure the 40+ demographic probably want some metal band…"

Dont
Agree 👍 I still don't understand why it's 6 points for a goal and only 1 point for the other and kicking the ball 🏈 like a soccer ball is also a goal.
