NRL require no skill ,they use 10% brain cause all you do is pass the ball to the man next to you or 3 down the line and have big bodies. Even the NFL has more skills. AFL is way harder to play cause you do require skills and toughness and Brians it's cause most AFL players don't know how to play the game.

Can't compare them cause they are two different sports.Love rugby league but have alot of respect for Afl.These blokes are really fit,have precision in kicking and passing and can run forever.
League fans forget that AFL players can get folded in half from any direction. In League you know which direction the tackler is coming from. I love both, but to say that AFL is weak is just utter bullshit.
For all those people who say they only play or like AFL "down south"... NSW is in the southern half of Australia. Perth is closer to the equator than Sydney. AFL football is easily the most popular sport in the Northern Territory
Throw the ball backwards get tackled,throw the ball backwards get tackled. To start with AFL isn’t a game. I’ve played both games I like the league but Aussie rules is a lot harder. League player don’t have to bounce the ball while running,you can see the tackles coming,in Aussie rules you can get hit from any angle,you have to follow a man and stop him from getting a kick. A lot more running, in league just throw the ball away,you can’t do that in Aussie rules. Mark the ball ,bounce the ball, tackle, stop your opponent,run at least 15 kilometres a game,get tackled many times and get up. Rugby league get the ball run a bit throw it away, once in a while you will get crunched but in Aussie rules many times a game.
When I watch AFL, barely any can mark the ball, players only make 2 or 3 tackles a game and you get a point for missing. Then if the ball goes to ground it starts to look really stupid. No one can get the ball out of the mess then half the idiots stand around holding their arms up.
Straight up. It's a much harder game. Even with the rule changes. Which tbf, is only going to help the mental health of players post career? I'd like to see anyone calling it a pussy sport, back into a contest and get KO'd by a knee to the back of a head from some guy using you as a step ladder to take a mark. Pussy sport my arse.
@@dreadlord7526 you get a point if you kick a point, I get the on the ground point you made it’s annoying even too avid Australian football followers.

Because it’s not a great game to watch live ,it’s ok on tv. Anyway go Raiders
Yep, that's a great comment. Both games are great and are enjoyable to play and watch. 100% true. AFL requires a lot more running/stamina and the tackles can come from anywhere. So you have to be aware, but in the NRL the tackles are coming in front of you. You know a hit is coming as soon as you get the ball. In AFL, they can come from any angle or position so them guys gotta be sharp with in seconds to make a decision with the next play.
@@davinstok8921 AFL is played on a massive field with players distributed all over the place. I hear this hit’s from any angle BS all the time and it only happens a few times a game. If you put an AFL conditioned player into an NRL game they would be carried off in the first few minutes.
NRL is like dog footy, gotta sniff the arses before playing. 20000 fans at NRL game is a sellout, 20000 fans at an AFL game is a dismal turnout. NRL, best sleeping pill ever🥱🥱🥱😴
Grew up in Melbourne. Loved footy growing up but as soon as I started getting taken to Storm games at Olympic park I completely devoted my emotional energy to them. I like league more. But one thing those AFL haters can’t deny is that AFL gets massive crowds and huge membership. Some clubs have 70k plus membership. 70k! Where’s you switch on a league game and there’s less than 10k sometimes.
I'm from Sydney and was in Melbourne back in 09 and the Saturday afternoon was crazy. I seen the city packed with fans going to a port Melbourne game. I said to my friend check it out. This is a regular game with 2 middle to bottom of the table teams and it looks like they arr going to a league finals match! I do think Victorians are more passionate and loyal when it comes to sports.
@@StephenWestSyd yup. The culture of attending games is completely different. Think AFL ranks 3rd or 4th as of the most attended sports leagues in the world.
@@jimmyohara2601 league supporters: why go watch the game live when you can go to the pub? . Sydney used to get high game turnouts in the pre cable t.v era as not every game was broadcast live. Once every game went on live television league fans got lazy. I say another aspect to why Melbourne get better turn outs to games is your city isn't outdated in design and infrastructure like Sydney is? In Sydney during peak hour you can take 45 minutes to travel what should be a 15 minute trip.
Honestly don’t get how people can’t appreciate the fact we’ve got two of the best sporting products down under. Both physical, but have different strengths and skills. I personally lean more towards the AFL but that doesn’t mean i don’t love my Cowboys
Just a bit of banter I think. Most Australians love sport regardless of code, some sports take higher personal preference than others but as a whole we love all sports. You'll always get the staunch AFL or NRL fan that despises the other code. I'm a League nut from QLD, but quite often tune in to watch the Lions and watch nearly every AFL GF. The appreciation is there you just got to look past the hard nosed fans of each code.
Put em on the field with nrl players they'd get smashed!!..but they ain't soft thats for sure, there really fit guys but I dear say compared to nrl and union afl is abit soft, not the players just the game.
A lot depends on where you grew up. I grew up in Melbourne in the 70’s & 80’s, so followed Australian rules because that’s what I was exposed to and it was a great game from the 70’s up until about 2010. Then with more tv coverage into Melbourne of rugby league, especially state of origin, I have grown to really like the game and actually prefer it to Aussie rules these days. The AFL have killed Aussie rules with too many crap rules and allowing players to interchange.
No mate, Rugby is embarrassing especially rugby league, this month is a rarity that one of it's "stars" is not in court for some gross indecently or other major crime.
Where the f*** did you get the information that Lions are bigger than Broncos that is certainly not the case. 9 Sydney NRL teams 2 Sydney gayfl teams need I say more?
@@ethandavies8989 not going anywhere mate I highly doubt you’ve even been to NSW or QLD just the fans gayfl fans here have to make everyone think they have more fans because they go to every single game for whatever stupid reason. Where as league fans only go to the odd game because *insert hereargument that’s been made a million times but gayfl fans still can’t get their heads around*
@@ethandavies8989 Don’t know here you got that information mate last year 2021, The NRL got 95,977 as an average attendance of all Sydney teams combined AFL 30,493, Regarding the Brisbane comment that’s just because they had a shit year last year they have an average attendance of 28k this year
I don't understand the hostility between AFL and NRL fans. There's more than enough room for both sports. Australia is now very much like America in that it traditionally has a big 4 sports (Cricket, League, Union and Aussie Rules instead of Baseball, American Football, Ice Hockey and Basketball) and soccer is now making headway as a 5th sport in both countries. There's enough fans who support some or all of the sports.
You blokes say they only play AFL "down south" but it's easily the most popular football code in the Northern Territory. In fact I heard recently that there are more AFL players than rugby union players in... yes, you guessed it... NSW
Yes, and every Victorian AFL fan absolutely despises the fact that Australian Rules Football is taking root in New South Wales, especially Sydney. They hate sharing their game and hate every single Sydneysider and Brisbanite for taking an interest. It's all 'this is OUR game, go find your own.' Australian Rules Football is a great game that deserved better people to create it. It would've grown exponentially larger if created in England, Europe, or the United States.
@@davidmurphy2903 What are you talking about? AFL fans love it, I'm Victorian and I love that interest for AFL is growing Brisbane and Sydney, so does every person I know. It means AFL can get bigger. I also love NRL and really hope that eventually they can expand to the AFL states. They can't right now because they just included the Dolphins and need to build up their grass roots, otherwise the talent will be spread too thin, but I want AFL and NRL to both grow on the opposite side of the 'Barassi line'.
@davidmurphy2903 Are you serious? Victorians are delighted to see Australian Rules football spread to other parts of Australia. BTW One of the founders of Australian rules football, Tom Wills, was a New South Welshman.
@@ethandavies8989 Honestly I wouldn’t mind that everything we need is there and we will be closer to other countries and actually we have more population than the rest of ya
@@chadchadderton fair point, it's just that I believe we only hate afl because the code of AFL hates NRL, would be great if we actually cooperated instead of dragging each other down
@@4KTUNCO I reckon neither really care about the other unless it's brought up, I mean really do you care if people don't enjoy NRL/AFL, you support your code and enjoy it.
As a born and bred Victorian growing up playing and watching AFL I can say that it is a shadow of its former self It used to be a great hard tough game but like the lady said it's for pussies now I can barely watch it anymore it's that bad It's so sanitized so over umpired so many rule changes It's a real shame Went to my first NRL game in 2012 and haven't looked back Go The Melbourne Storm !!!
If you like watching people getting injured just go and watch UFC, cause in Ruby you only have to know how to run and pass the ball to the side, it's a boring game for dumb people with skills that don't require match to work on just running into each other. AFL is actually wayyy more dangerous then rugby cause players come from every angle. U need skill to kick that ball, but in NRL you just have to be big and that's it. Passing is pretty easy in NRL
@@raideraust Melbourne is the coffee capital of the world, has an amazing foodie scene, has at least one team from every major sport in Australia here, plus events such as Melbourne Cup, Australian Open, Grand Prix......not a lot to do yeah? I think you need to lay off the crack.

Meanwhile Carlton Collingwood games pull 70,000 plus every game. Only two states play NRL rest don't play at all. Growing up in WA never heard of NRL. But I like them all, Afl is better live , NRL is good on TV, International RU is also good to watch.
Love this. do they realise league was created because the “poor convicts” werent permitted to play real rugby (union). so they made up a new sport - league. hence why its so popular in australia
@@archiefox1414 ....I like AFL, but Union has something that the AFL does not. A World Cup. That's the missing ingredient, to reach for the highest goal on the world stage. As for an isolated game to watch, they (AFL and Union) are pretty close. Good examples were the two grand finals Sydney v West Coast. Both nearly gave me a heart attack and I don't go for either side. 1999 World Cup semi-final New Zealand v France.....stunning and turn around match. Japan v South Africa 2015 WC. Tight, tough and a historical upset. I can watch either with enthusiasm but League for me, does very little.
Australia is just as responsible for popularising Rugby League if not more. Englands best players come to Australia, not the other way round. In terms of Australian History, Rugby was first played in 1839 while Aussie Rules was until 1859, so technically Rugby has longer roots in Australia than Aussie Rules. That said, I do appreciate the AFL.
I like AFL more cos of the consistent tendency to actually KICK the ball, hence the term FOOTball, plus there’s more scoring plus I don’t have to wait wha can often be 10-20mins for a single score. It’s Aussie not English too.
AFL, drop the ball as much as you like, play on with your foot on the boundary line, getting points for missing shots at goal that don't even have crossbars. AFL is the world's easiest football code to score.
@@SkyBlue-px1tc want to talk about an easy way to score? How about running into 68 metre wide, 11 metre long patch of grass at the end of the ground. 😂
@@fullstop7457 Then why are the scores in the hundreds in AFL lol?? NRL games score a quarter of the amount of points. Also a field goal is harder to score than any AFL goal. You have a crossbar to contend with and no points for missing.
@@SkyBlue-px1tc I know right. 😂 But jokes aside, it’s because AFL has more dynamic ball and player movement. It’s not locked down to a run forwards, pass backwards dynamic. Play can be quickly transitioned via kicks, marks, unrestricted running and, as you so helpfully pointed out, improvisation such as kicking the ball along the ground. This is shown in the average distance covered by players in each code. The average rugby player covers 7 KM whilst the average AFL player covers double that at over 14 KM.
I'm from Europe so what you can call a neutral. But here's my take, AFL is way more exciting to watch for me. It's fast, spectacular and chaotic, you never know what's gonna happen or which way it's gonna go. I can't say I don't like NRL, it's actually good, but I find it way more repetitive, basically running/pushing forward until you can break the defense line.
Rugby has always been my number 1 but I used to love AFL as well. However I can't stand it anymore. I hate Victoria's claim on it, yeah it started there but get over it, it's called AFL now. The grand final needs to be played all over the country, not just the MCG. I've switched to NFL (which is becoming hugely popular in Australia) because I love seeing the Superbowl in all the different venues and seeing what each city has to offer. Rugby is still my number 1 but I love NFL, Basketball and F1 way more than AFL. Plus AFL is one of the worst games to watch live. I went to the SCG April last year and watched Sydney vs Essendon which was a good game but all the action took place on the opposite side of the field to me, so I spent the whole game watching the big screen, I could have done that at home on my 82inch 4K TV with surround sound on for atmosphere.
@@gabbyt98 not that you have said anything about my Victoria rant but I should clarify I don't hate Victorians just the politics surrounding the sport of AFL and the arrogance of some of the high up Victorian footy representatives, cough Eddi cough cough! 😄
@@TheShinobiik11 you got to live in Victoria before you put shit on afl like that, there’s a reason rugby was made by the Europeans because there soft Arrangant fucks while as afl fans enjoy a sport originated form Australia sport than a Europe one

I love both, I don't think I could go all in for any more sports because I already watch every Pies and Storm game, plus a lot of Neutral games, I've tried getting into Soccer, but that's a tough ask......so painfully slow and unexciting unless actually at the game. I went to the Grand Final between City and WUnited and that was amazing, but other games I've seen have been boring. WUnited home ground will be near my house when it's finished, so I will be able to go to those games, as long as Pies and Storm aren't playing.

Probably grew up a Raiders fan or maybe parents were, since there wasn't a Victorian team back before 98. But yeah, 1 team on the AFL side of the Barassi line.....NRL stuffed up big time when they got rid of Perth and Adelaide teams, there was support for them, they opted to keep most Sydney teams.......stupid decision. AFL moved Swans to Sydney and merged Fitzroy with the Brisbane Bears to create a strong presence in Brisbane. Now there are 2 more teams north of the Barassi line for a total of 4. It's going to take time for Giants and Suns to grow, but they have decent membership numbers already. Giants have more members than nearly all NRL teams.

@@Whistler112 apes can eat their fecal matter when food is scarce.Besides that NRL is very dull from a spectators point of view that's why you only get very small crowds compared to AFL it's quite a fkn joke.20,⁰000 is considered a big crowd😂that would be a dismal failure for a game of AFL,and your seagull analogy is gay.
Least AFL has momentum, In league play stops every 2 seconds while everyone hugs each other. Meanwhile your AFL players will belt up a field double the length at double the speed and climb a tower of 3 people to take a mark.
@@mitchellsmith300 which mightn't happen for half an hour cause moving the ball down the field quickly is good. Also the amount of whistles and stopping is double in Rugby wdym. 80% of the time 80% of every rugby team slowly walks behind the action cause each side has to stop and go backwards a bit every tackle
It's in interesting how Rugby in general bhad become more of an everyman's game in Australia in recent decades. As a lad in the UK Rugby was still seen as a bit uniquely public( called private in Oz) schoolboy and university. Football/soccer and cricket was and still are the sports of the working class. Outside of the UK it's definitely adopted by the wider community.

I would say AFL definitely the most technical of the two. The range of movement is a lot more dynamic. You need to be a well rounded athlete to do well. Rugby is more a pure test of strength.

Grew up in Melbourne. Loved footy growing up but as soon as I started getting taken to Storm games at Olympic park I completely devoted my emotional energy to them. I like league more. But one thing those AFL haters can’t deny is that AFL gets massive crowds and huge membership. Some clubs have 70k plus membership. 70k! Where’s you switch on a league game and there’s less than 10k sometimes.
I'm from Sydney and was in Melbourne back in 09 and the Saturday afternoon was crazy. I seen the city packed with fans going to a port Melbourne game. I said to my friend check it out. This is a regular game with 2 middle to bottom of the table teams and it looks like they arr going to a league finals match! I do think Victorians are more passionate and loyal when it comes to sports.
@@StephenWestSyd yup. The culture of attending games is completely different. Think AFL ranks 3rd or 4th as of the most attended sports leagues in the world.
less than 10,000 spectators at a league game sometimes ?? seriously dude, that's most of the time to every time. you should 🐝 a tad more observant 🧐🤪
@@jimmyohara2601 league supporters: why go watch the game live when you can go to the pub? .
Sydney used to get high game turnouts in the pre cable t.v era as not every game was broadcast live. Once every game went on live television league fans got lazy. I say another aspect to why Melbourne get better turn outs to games is your city isn't outdated in design and infrastructure like Sydney is? In Sydney during peak hour you can take 45 minutes to travel what should be a 15 minute trip.
@@StephenWestSyd a big exaggeration on the travel times dude. I know Sydney much better than you 🤔🧐

Just a bit of banter I think. Most Australians love sport regardless of code, some sports take higher personal preference than others but as a whole we love all sports. You'll always get the staunch AFL or NRL fan that despises the other code. I'm a League nut from QLD, but quite often tune in to watch the Lions and watch nearly every AFL GF. The appreciation is there you just got to look past the hard nosed fans of each code.

A lot depends on where you grew up. I grew up in Melbourne in the 70’s & 80’s, so followed Australian rules because that’s what I was exposed to and it was a great game from the 70’s up until about 2010. Then with more tv coverage into Melbourne of rugby league, especially state of origin, I have grown to really like the game and actually prefer it to Aussie rules these days. The AFL have killed Aussie rules with too many crap rules and allowing players to interchange.
Exactly my experience
I am a new south Welshman and am NRL to the core, but respect AFL. Both are good
the interchange bench has been a thing since the 1930s… the afl didn’t introduce it you muppet

I don't understand the hostility between AFL and NRL fans. There's more than enough room for both sports. Australia is now very much like America in that it traditionally has a big 4 sports (Cricket, League, Union and Aussie Rules instead of Baseball, American Football, Ice Hockey and Basketball) and soccer is now making headway as a 5th sport in both countries. There's enough fans who support some or all of the sports.
You blokes say they only play AFL "down south" but it's easily the most popular football code in the Northern Territory. In fact I heard recently that there are more AFL players than rugby union players in... yes, you guessed it... NSW
Yes, and every Victorian AFL fan absolutely despises the fact that Australian Rules Football is taking root in New South Wales, especially Sydney. They hate sharing their game and hate every single Sydneysider and Brisbanite for taking an interest. It's all 'this is OUR game, go find your own.' Australian Rules Football is a great game that deserved better people to create it. It would've grown exponentially larger if created in England, Europe, or the United States.
AFL is big in SW NSW
@@davidmurphy2903 What are you talking about? AFL fans love it, I'm Victorian and I love that interest for AFL is growing Brisbane and Sydney, so does every person I know. It means AFL can get bigger.

They can't right now because they just included the Dolphins and need to build up their grass roots, otherwise the talent will be spread too thin, but I want AFL and NRL to both grow on the opposite side of the 'Barassi line'.

Funny, league an English game. AFL an Australian game.
Australia is just as responsible for popularising Rugby League if not more. Englands best players come to Australia, not the other way round. In terms of Australian History, Rugby was first played in 1839 while Aussie Rules was until 1859, so technically Rugby has longer roots in Australia than Aussie Rules. That said, I do appreciate the AFL.
A poll taken in 2020 found that around 7.5 Australians watch AFL and only had 5.7
I like AFL more cos of the consistent tendency to actually KICK the ball, hence the term FOOTball, plus there’s more scoring plus I don’t have to wait wha can often be 10-20mins for a single score. It’s Aussie not English too.
NRL: Run straight, pass backwards.
AFL: Run everywhere, pass anywhere.
By design, AFL is just more complex.
So small of a field
AFL, drop the ball as much as you like, play on with your foot on the boundary line, getting points for missing shots at goal that don't even have crossbars.
AFL is the world's easiest football code to score.
@@SkyBlue-px1tc want to talk about an easy way to score? How about running into 68 metre wide, 11 metre long patch of grass at the end of the ground. 😂
@@fullstop7457 Then why are the scores in the hundreds in AFL lol??
NRL games score a quarter of the amount of points.
Also a field goal is harder to score than any AFL goal. You have a crossbar to contend with and no points for missing.
@@SkyBlue-px1tc I know right. 😂
But jokes aside, it’s because AFL has more dynamic ball and player movement. It’s not locked down to a run forwards, pass backwards dynamic. Play can be quickly transitioned via kicks, marks, unrestricted running and, as you so helpfully pointed out, improvisation such as kicking the ball along the ground.
This is shown in the average distance covered by players in each code. The average rugby player covers 7 KM whilst the average AFL player covers double that at over 14 KM.
I'm from Europe so what you can call a neutral. But here's my take, AFL is way more exciting to watch for me. It's fast, spectacular and chaotic, you never know what's gonna happen or which way it's gonna go. I can't say I don't like NRL, it's actually good, but I find it way more repetitive, basically running/pushing forward until you can break the defense line.
Funny AFL is 2.5 times bigger than the NRL, bit like our IQ.

The grand final needs to be played all over the country, not just the MCG. I've switched to NFL (which is becoming hugely popular in Australia) because I love seeing the Superbowl in all the different venues and seeing what each city has to offer. Rugby is still my number 1 but I love NFL, Basketball and F1 way more than AFL. Plus AFL is one of the worst games to watch live.

@@bradthurkle7217 their trying to protect the head so they dont have issues when their older
even if it's not your thing NRL is still a great sport that you should definitely give a try, the grand final rematch is on tonight
@@4KTUNCO shit. Really? Mite have a squiz. I got foxtel 👍
Kick and giggle makes laugh 😂 It’s basically dudes playing aerial ping pong in micro skirts but shorts.
i can’t tell which sport you’re referring to… both sports wear the same shorts
@@chadchadderton probably shouldn’t be watching either of them if you can’t tell which one looks like aerial ping pong
@@hoodoussadlay i know league isnt super complex but i wouldnt say its aerial ping pong. obviously footy isnt either so your comment is weird
Prefer Australian sport personally, not the imported rubbish. Plus the "NRL fans" interviewed give you a fair indication of the NRL game in terms of skill and intellect required.
The only good thing about AFL is if u miss a goal u still get a point...
Please explain why you run forward and throw the ball behind you why not throw the ball in front of you?
@@peterreynolds8146 because that's the way gridiron is played and NRL is definitely not like gridiron...
@@peterreynolds8146 why do you bounce a footy ball while running ? Is afl a gay spin off of basketball ?
@@alexcs3104 it’s always the pathetic league fans that mention the word gay in every sentence… how original. sad that you make all league fans look bad. half of ‘em are great blokes
@@chadchadderton GAYFL
AUSTRALIAN Football League. Nuff said
I like both. AFL has to be seen live, it’s a poor sport for TV unlike League and Rugby.
@J G
Girls game
@J G rather watch paint dry.
Rugby is so boring to watch at times, most AFL players don't know how to play the game which is why it looks disorganised
@@jonathanntulume9298
Rugby or League?
@J G So after your main accounts comments get taken down, you spam with your alt account to continue breaking community guidelines eh? Swimming and Track and Field are the REAL important sports and are the TRUE world game. Both sports are essential skills to humanity whereas kicking a soccer ball isn’t an essential skill to survive. Track and Field and Swimming are the main events at the Olympics and the spectators at those sports heavily outweigh the spectators at soccer matches (or as a true fan would call, “football”). Therefore soccer isn’t the worlds most important game and is easily shat on by Swimming and Track and Field

It’s: GAY’FL not AFL??
Same as gayrl
@@Jmez. doesn’t really work the same
always the league fans that being gay into the conversation… no wonder the players beat up women all the time when you have no love for them
@@chadchadderton don’t forget piss in their own mouths and get a blowy off a dog! Actually happened
@@chadchadderton and u wonder why this countries domestic violence rates are high
NRL is the best!!
No AFL is the best

I'm a Queenslander, personally, I love both but AFL a bit more. Because these were asked in Queensland, more people would say NRL because there is more of an NRL following in Queensland compared to AFL, but the tables are turned in Victoria. Go Lions!
I appreciate you liking afl more
@@ethandavies8989 you're welcome :)
@@ethandavies8989 😂😂
These guys obviously haven’t played afl if they think it’s soft . U can get hit from any direction at 100 mile an hour unlike rugby where u can see them coming 👻
Ruby is actually the pussy sport in comparison
Yeah I know right they talk all this shit but have never played it and they have no athletic ability which the sport actually requires unlike nrl so they would get beaten the shit out of
I love my AFL .. l also watch the storm in the NRL .. both great foory codes but at the end of day l would rarher watch a game that actually plays in front of big crowds !! I watched the roosters the other night and they had 10 thousand at the SCG lol even the swans draw biggwr crowds at the SCG ..go to the Demons vs Magpies 82000 at THE MCG.. GO the storm !
Watching nrl at scg is fucking shut that’s why lol
@@cooperhaynes2691 thats no reason for supporters not to show up lol even the bunnies and panthers the other night had a shit attendence
2:13 this guy is spitting facts
Nah dude he’s on drugs look at his eyes
It’s one of the worst games of all
That's why NRL attendance is a joke and the sport is almost collapsing.
AFL use to be a great game its now over umpired and soft
It’s not but ok
I would say AFL definitely the most technical of the two. The range of movement is a lot more dynamic. You need to be a well rounded athlete to do well. Rugby is more a pure test of strength.
That last bloke Took the cake …(I’m still getting over 99 who you talking about) 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 💀
2:43 if it’s a peasant sport, why afl players make more money than nrl players? 😂
NRL fans all look the same :/
It’s called inbreeding
Yes because lebanese people and white people look the same
@@OHSSVOH-xm8nv Tassie and victoria don't play nrl usually
@@4KTUNCO yeah.. I can’t speak for tassie but we Victorians have evolved past caveman games. Same as SA and WA
@@OHSSVOH-xm8nv you guys are evolving backwards then, as instead of playing a game with actual structure you pretend to be seagulls chasing a chip
I’m surprised that there are 5 nrl fans that can construct a sentence. Just.
Both awesome sports
