If you know the rules and have an idea of all of the strategies and plays that are involved, its a really interesting sport. 22 players are doing something different on every play.

...and its a 60 minute game ;)

Yeah fair enough, I get all that but I just can't cop it. Men playing in long pants, hats, gloves and I think sunnies at times is just too silly for words. But for fans it must be okay or it wouldn't happen. I get a ticket offered to me every Super Bowl (since about the late 90's) but I've never used it, maybe one day I should skull a Valium thick shake and attend!

When you see blokes get "crunched" with the "boom" and get up immediately takes the gloss of it... give me the AFL bumps anyday. All done without the chest pumping, ape imitating, strutting around of the NFL.

The thing about the NFL is there are big hits on half of the plays during every game.

There may be one or two in a whole game of AFL if we're lucky.

And thats solely down to the fact they wear protective head gear.

I could never play gridiron because you dress up in all that protective equipment and half the time you stand around and do sweet f**k all. I can watch it though, I went and watched my mates play a few times during the Gridiron SA season. We played rugby league together at school and loved it, Rugby is so much tougher than Gridiron.

I know a bit about it, having been involved at the Port Adelaide Spartans for many years as a cheerleader/trainer. Still doesn't make it any less boring to watch though :lol:

I don't think many would play 2 games in a row without the helmets and padding. Some of those guys would make the Australian 100m sprint team, and weigh 240lbs.
