Aussie Rules Football

Mad as a box of frogs these Aussies..... An oval pitch, 4 goal post at each end, 18 players per team and 9 referees....

Aussie Rules Football here we come......

With a little help from Daniel and the nice lady in the seat in front of me they explained the very simple game of ARF. Which is basically like Rugby, Football and Basketball all roled into one with Referees who make the rules up as they go along.

Highly entertaining once you get head round the scoring system........

Well we watched a pre season round robin warm up between Melbourne, Adelaide and Port Adelaide. With Melbourne the overall winner with a 2 games to nil, very convincing wins, Adelaide second after pulling themselves together to beat Port Adelaide who took home the wooden spoon!!!! Good job theres a few more months before the actual league begins.
