Probably the best in the AFL now, or close.

He doesn't look like a trannie in that picture.

Bricktop

He probably isn't one. Just a guess.



Although we do have ONE trannie who once played and coached in the AFL.



Then...

Is Australian football more like American football or rugby?

While the end objectives are fairly similar, it (and Brit which I'm guessin are similar to Aussie) are quite different from N America's more sophisticated game  in many ways  ac_smile



And then there's that  .. well "faceoff" type of  thingy that ends up looking  like a mass orgy of writhing male bodies scrunched tightly together & moving against each other  en masse .. each body "supposedly"  (rolleyes)  trying to get the ball



I suppose many play or watch just for those exquisite moments   :sneaky2:

It's uniquely Australian.



It's a running and kicking game, with a bit of bouncing in it.
Blahhhhhh...

Proving yet again that women know nothing about football.



Australian football is played over four quarters, with each quarter lasting between 25 and 30 minutes.



It is non stop. Unlike "sophisticated" American football where every minute or so play is stopped, discussed, the referees hold a meeting, players call their girfriends and the coaches throw hissy fits at their iPads.



Unlike the clearly misnamed American "Throwball", Australian football actually combines both foot and ball in a movement called kicking. Distances of 50 metres or more are standard, and precision is essential. Australian football does not require competitors to use two teams that interchange during the game.



And I query why such a "sophisticated" game requires armour. The only armour Australian footballers wear is mouthguards.



I also wonder why, for such a "sophisticated" game, American football is played predominantly by African Americans. Is it racist?

Every sport has its merits.
Blahhhhhh...

Bricktop

I don't disagree. That is why I never claim one sport to be better than another.



Some offer better entertainment than others, others require greater skill and expertise.



I prefer a fast flowing, high scoring game than a stop-start snooze fest. I can't watch soccer, or cricket.

No sport offers the excitement that golf does.

It was more exciting running the kitchen of a 9 hole golf course after school than watching or playing golf.
Blahhhhhh...

Playing is fine...any participation is better than none.



But I cannot watch golf.
