As a somewhat new fan from America who has watched casually in the past but took a deep dive this year and became a club member, thank you SO FREAKING MUCH for these videos!!! Keep up the hard work.

[@FootyA2Z]

Thank you! We have plenty more on the way

[@lukeslayer]

You're a legend! Who do you follow mate? I'm a Tiger 🐯

[@Folino46]

That's awesome mate

[@Cutiepatootie69420]

Wait what you guys have afl over there

[@TheDRDUCKY]

As somebody from Scotland who’s recently taken up footy knowing not a single rule. Your videos have been great for learning the game. Anthony McDonald-tipungwuti is who I try to base my play style after. He’s the man

[@DianneFilipenko]

Nice work on this one and congrats on 1K subs

[@shaunwilson11]

Solid video! Would love to see you explain how the Western Bulldogs of 2016 came from 7th to win the flag

Love ur vids, keep it up

[@jung135]

I’d love to see a video explaining the rookie draft!

[@Fringes007]

Nice work lad . Good to have somthing like tifo football for footy

[@turn567]

Great video! There isn't quite enough of this content on KZbin and most of us usually just pretend to know what we're talking about!

[@whydoilike]

how are you such a good KZbinr, I don't know how you do it??? if there was a million people who used KZbin and was into AFL then you would have a million subscribers, even if you don't you REALLY deserve it!

Nice video guys

[@FootyA2Z]

Cheers mate :)

[@nedvaught3151]

I love your videos, and as a non-Australian AFL fan I'm finally learning things I had always wanted to know. Thank you! I'd love to understand how the "exchanges" work when players come off the pitch. I hear commentators refer to this, but it's rarely shown on camera. When can players come off and on? Do they only come off for injury, or do sometimes they just take a break? How do they know when to come off and on?

[@FootyA2Z]

Teams can rotate players continuously through the 4 interchange positions but are limited to making 90 interchanges per game. The rotations can occur at any time and the gameplay isn’t stopped to make them. Will probably look into it in detail for a vid one day. Glad to hear you’re enjoying them :)

[@darcyhodgsonmelrose768]

Afl explained: Rivalries? that would be a great vid

[@FootyA2Z]

Stay tuned! We have vid on WC vs SYD in the works ;)

[@darcyhodgsonmelrose768]

@@FootyA2ZNice really excited, I think you could even start a series with how many rivalries there are in the league.

[@FootyA2Z]

Darcy Hodgson Melrose absolutely! There’s plenty to write about

[@lolking21ho85]

The Key forward role but pacifically fall Forward like a Charlie Dixon, Tom Hawkins

[@dazzamcneil9956]

Could you please explain the rules around the corridor in front of goals, cheers mate.

[@adhityavjiyer7617]

One of the most spectacular things about Footy is how versatile players are. Almost every player is guaranteed to play in multiple positions. Not just playing , sims create massive impacts. This isn’t there in Soccer or Rugby for that matter.

[@FootyA2Z]

It’s definitely a factor that makes us unique. Even something as simple as a full back switching to full forward like Harry Taylor. In soccer you see CBs get forward for set pieces but not actually play striker!

[@adhityavjiyer7617]

@@FootyA2Z Amongst the current players, There are some genuine backs-forwards. Hookesy won 2 games last after moving to full forward midway through 3rd quarter

[@FootyA2Z]

Adhitya VJ Iyer absolutely. Harry Taylor is another one who springs to mind

[@samwallace1873]

Can you do this for the big key forwards?

[@Parasuniversal]

What filters or effects are you using to create the graphics of the players?

[@FootyA2Z]

Hey mate, we draw all the art on Adobe Illustrator (and a little with Affinity Designer)

[@benhurley6122]

Which team do you go for

[@BZMN35]

Liking these videos but I'd suggest you went from "pressure forwards" to two types of "defensive forwards" at the end there which a quite different concepts. May have been better making a vid about "forward roles" and branching into the different types?

[@murrayoversby5609]

I think another topic that might be interesting to cover would be the rise of tall, big bodied midfielders

[@FootyA2Z]

Yeah that’s a good one. Even the “smaller” mids can be huge these days

[@dakotaleedavies7849]

Do centre-half forward

[@user-xh9bk4rr7l]

Play making

[@nickd6408]

You remind me of tifo football
