Metal_Jacket Posted March 14, 2007 Share Posted March 14, 2007 The Australian football season is about to start in two weeks, so I thought I might post a preview for those that have never seen the game before , it certainly is a game that you love or hate, me , I love it.

Nutlink Posted March 14, 2007 Share Posted March 14, 2007 Looks like much more fun to watch than the beefed up panzies in pads that the US calls the NFL. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gav80 Posted March 14, 2007 Share Posted March 14, 2007 (edited) Gotta love the Aussie soundtrack too.... If you think American football is all "beefed up pansies in pads", Nutlink, you should count yourself lucky it's not European football (ie "soccer"). They really are wimps... Lol This video is just a little bit biased (lol), but it does a good job of showing the worst bit of the football/soccer jessies (from the World Cup final last year between France and Italy) and some good bits of the last rugby World Cup final (between Australia and England in 2003): Football v rugby And this one is just rugby, but has some good attacking play and quick hands in the back-line, and also some big hits defensively too... (It's a bit grainy though): Rugby is awesome EDIT: Shouldn't this really be in the "sports" forum...? Edited March 14, 2007 by Gav80 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Metal_Jacket Posted March 9, 2008 Author Share Posted March 9, 2008 The 2008 football season is about to start once again, can’t wait. Here we have some footage of the team I support, called Collingwood. (They wear vertical black and white stripes on their jersey.) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2kvPplYXJ4s Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
