Can you understand why we all laugh at American football with all the padding? This is pure gladiator sport and we do love it - and I grew up in Victoria which used to be just AFL. We now have a NRL team and we love this also. And we love watching Americans wincing watching NRL - this is just normal for us - great game!

As someone who's played both sports (League and Gridiron) for years - everytime I hear the word 'padding' from a fellow Aussie it makes me laugh. There's no padding. Its solid reinforced plastic with a bit of soft backing on body side so it doesn't scrape against you, and basically a motorbike helmet. I had more 'padding' in my Wayne Pearce Perseus shoulder pads in the late 80's ;) There are far more brutal collisions in Gridiron than league, especially nowadays with shoulder charges banned. Gridiron is a power and collision sport where every yard is vital since you only have 10 to work with for 4 tackles, and if they make that 10yards (9 and a bit metres) they get another set of 4 tackles. In League we have an entire field (100m) to play out 5 tackles and we kick on the last. Gridiron tackling is designed to hit/collide and stop any forward movement from the point of contact. But the funniest bit is - every year, after the first night of full contact with gear on, the number of blokes who don't turn up again is piss funny. They find out it's not all 'softness' and 'padding' and don't come back lol, we usually take bets on how many will suddenly get put on night shift or have to go away for work. Like clockwork, every year ;)

Hmm. For me a hospital pass was one where, as the recipient of the pass, you KNOW the hit is coming, you can SEE it coming but the ball is in midair to you and what can you do? You have to catch it. So a hospital pass is where your teammate has basically set you up to go to hospital.

Gridiron is stop start all the time. Takes about 4hrs to play 4 15min quarters. Meanwhile, NRL is pretty much non stop for 2 40min halves. NRL takes far more stamina and there are far less ‘set plays’… and all players are attackers, defenders and take kicks for goal (and not from just directly in front of the posts). It’s not uncommon for a kick to be taken from just inside the sideline. And they will often be successful too.

@@freespiritgirl73 I grew up on AFL, since it was VFL actually, but once I saw my first NRL game I was hooked. Having followed both sports for many years, I can appreciate the differences of both games, I can say from my point of view that NRL is much faster, it's not slowed down by the rules; marks, kicks, tume it takes to pick your target, in the backs, & everyone's annoying favourite the annoying kicking back & forth across goal time wasting! Ther are so many differences that speed up the game of NRL, it's continually kept moving, 2 x 40min halves, only one short break in-between, not at the end if every quarter as in AFL, it's just 2 halves of bone crunching skill, action & speed, if there's no winner at the end then it goes to golden point, until the first team to score wins. All players are running for that 80mins, & defending their line in goal, & trying to hold on to the ball wet or dry when 4- 5 massive bloke up end you & try to wrestle it from you, sorry it's my opinion NRL is much tougher & faster than AFL. You should go to a match one day & check it out for yourself just for your own outlook on it, if nothing else it's a good afternoon or night of different entertainment.

That last hit looked like a WWE 'Sidewalk Slam'. And, just an FYI, Rugby League was created from Rugby Union. Unlike American Football, You can only 'lateral' or pass the ball backwards. If you pass the ball forwards, you receive a penalty and loss of ball.

Shoulder pads were introduced into the NRL in the 1980s as a way to protect players from the increased physicality of the game. With harder tackles and high-impact collisions becoming more common, these pads were designed to absorb shock and shield areas like the shoulders and chest. They quickly gained popularity, particularly among forwards and players in high-contact roles, who benefitted from the added protection. By the 1990s, shoulder pads were widely used across the league, aligning with a period when the sport prioritized strength and physical dominance. However, as rugby league evolved, several factors led to the gradual decline in shoulder pad use. One was the improvement in player training and conditioning, which emphasized strength and injury prevention through fitness, reducing the need for added protective gear. Concerns over player safety and aggression also influenced this shift. Padded shoulders sometimes encouraged aggressive tackles, with players more likely to lead with the shoulder. Phasing out shoulder pads promoted safer tackling techniques, with fewer players using excessive force. Additionally, rule changes and a shift in play style placed greater emphasis on speed, agility, and skill over brute strength. As a result, the NRL saw an influx of smaller, faster, and more agile players who preferred a lighter, less restrictive uniform. Modern jerseys were designed to be close-fitting and lightweight, giving players greater freedom of movement without the bulk of shoulder padding. In summary, shoulder pads fell out of use in the NRL by the early 2000s due to changing game dynamics, an increased focus on safe play, and a player preference for agility and comfort. The game had moved beyond heavy-contact play, and as training and tackling techniques evolved, so too did the need for protective equipment like shoulder pads.

Rugby League is also played in England. The NRL took 4 teams to play in Las Vegas last March and are going again for the next few years. We call those last minute passes a "hospital pass". The head gear some players wear is soft and flexible.

They are similar, League came from a Rugby Union split in 1895 and was originally the Northern Rugby Football Union and gradually the rules were amended to become Rugby League. The split was mostly to do with professionalism and Rugby Union wanting to stay amateur.

League is also played in England (popular in the North where the game really started). I remember France playing too, and watching them play the Western Suburbs Magpies in a warm up game for a test series against Australia back in the day. It is the national game in Papua New Guinea who look like having a team in the NRL in the future.

After playing all three codes (AFL, NRL and Rugby union) I still think AFL is the most physical game mainly because in NRL and Rugby you are facing your opponent and know when you are going to get hit. In saying that I was always on the small side of players so spent most of my time on the wing or as fullback. During a game of AFL you can be tackled and bumped from any direction.
