GOT FOOT BALL wrong its not a rugby ball its afl football mate
@MichaelRogers-et8dq2 сағат бұрын
Australian Football crowds have the highest percentage of women (grandmas to teenagers) and children (of both sexes) attending of any any football code in the world. It is in stark contrast to Association Football crowds in the U.K. which appear to have a concentration of disaffected 20 year-old something men. Also there so much much more action on the ground in Australian Football with the average tally of goals for a winning team is 15 goals. (2024 season.)

@@AnthInOz Least you went in person. You learn so much more going in person at ground than trying to watch via youtube only or tv. The average youtuber that watches highlights of the sport on youtube remain clueless. Least when you say you were confused, you at least have an idea of how much you do not know. Some youtubers think they can learn the game from videos and truly are clueless forever even though they think they have learned about the sport.

AFL was codified in 1859 so before most of the other games you mentioned.

@shaundgb73674 сағат бұрын
@@AnthInOz It has expanded beyond one league FFS. ha ha ha 1859 means it still a colony of the British Empire and Australia is not even a nation at that point so it really was a local ball sport still working out rules for different cricket clubs to play each other at a ball sport each winter weekend in the town of Melbourne of 1859, in the British Empire. It would have been known as Melbourne rules first, then later Victoria rules as it expanded across the colony of Victoria in the 1860's. Other British colonies such as Tasmania and South Australia and West Australia started playing "Victorian rules" and created their own leagues in the 1870's and 1880's. The first real leagues such as SAFA in South Australia and VFA in Victoria started in the 1870's. So the first decade and a half of the sport was still organizing agreements between clubs just to even decide rules they would agree on and some type of schedule and then some type of ladder... There are many leagues that have existed in every state and every regional area as the population and Federation took place the next century for Australia to become a nation itself. Eight VFA clubs left the VFA in 1897 to form a new league called VFL and left the clubs they did not want with them in the VFA. VFA and VFL then continued as different leagues in Victoria for next nine decades. in 1987 the VFL added teams from West Australia and Brisbane up in Queensland. So the league was no longer truly just the Victorian Football League so the premiership title being for best team in Victoria was no longer what it was. So 1990 they eventually started calling it the Australian Football League and more clubs from other states were added as the 1990's progressed. So AFL is not actually the sport even though many people make the mistake of saying the sport is AFL. The sport is Australian football or Aussie rules footy, and the highest standard league is the Australian Football League. Anyway, rant over :)

@shaundgb7367 It's a one league membership only franchise. There's no promotion or relegation. There's no reward for winning a season beyond having that accolade, there's no repercussions for losing. I get it's longevity, it's appeal and the routes of teams joining and creating leagues, etc. in previous itterations. However, the fact still remains: it's one league. There's nothing wrong with that either, BTW.
