The AFL ? Rugby.
So I was flipping through the channels today and happened to see this on tv.

I have no idea if I am getting this right but I believe I was watching something called the AFL. I caught one team. They were the Sydney Swans.

I will tell you this. I had absolutely no freaking idea how this game is played, scored or kept track of but I found it extremely entertaining.

Man, those dudes really whale on each other. One guy on the opposing team flat out hits his opponent with a gut shot as he is running by.

Then for some reason the team that caused the foul kicked the ball through the goalposts for 12 points.

It was then that I said, ok I have no idea what is going on.

They would catch the ball, and a whistle would go off. throw the ball, whistle goes off.

I dunno.

What channel was this on Simon?

I've always been interested in seeing it but can never find it on the cable sports channels for some reason.

I'm sure Thirty7 could tell you alot about it, I believe he's a big fan. I'm sorry but I can't really give you any info on it, i've only seen it a few times.

If you liked the action in it and the physical hits then I suggest you watch abit of Rugby aswell.

Yeah, I've seen this. I think it's on ESPN on many Fridays. It's pretty good.

I don't get it at all either.

I thought AFL was Arena Football League? Maybe it also stand for Austrailan Futbol League or something.
Anyways, I've seen some rugby games on TV, although I don't really understand the rules
Visit and shop for video games at my Amazon-based store, also get discounted HD DVDs while they last.

Whatever Ida, was it because I didn't spell Australian correctley or that I said futbol or that I don't know the rules to a sport that most Americans don't even know exists?
