Thank you so very much. If not sports, what's one of your favorite pastimes?

Kevin, it is really admirable that you have taken a real interest in AFL. I am sure that if, or rather when, you come to our shores, you will have no end of volunteers all too willing to take you to an AFL game where you can see your team - the Sydney Swans - play. Actually your knowledge of the game and the players from each team is as good as that of any AFL fan here in Oz. Great channel by the way. Cheers!

What I can say? Your video about the Great Southern Land showed magnificent scenery. I watch videos about the AFL also for the magnificent scenery, LOL! I would also like to give congratulations to Australia for a strong start to the Paralympic Games. Four medals already!

@@discoveringnlwithkevin Yes, absolutely! I hope my sentiment was not seen as diminishing our athletes. I much prefer the Paralympic Games. I am so inspired by what humans can accomplish despite the odds. It makes me realize how much I take for granted.

Kevin, since you are learning about us Aussies. A quick heads up, your name will shortened to Kev (mostly) or Kev-o (less likely). This is done to people we like. I've noticed in the comment section, your name is already being shortened. This is a sign that we like you. If we didn't like you we wouldn't stick around or we'd let you know. We shorten every thing or give ironic names to people & places. Since you are deep diving into "Footy", some things you'll need to know. The Melbourne Cricket Ground is known as "The G". Free-o (Freo) is Fremantle. Brissie is Brisbane. Swanies are Sydney Swans. Essendon football club are the Bomber's. That just a start for now. Keep up the good work, Kev, mate.

Pretty good AA team, the only real issue is I think Weitering is very lucky to have made it in (he's had a good season, but not AA type good - I personally would have had Sam Collins as full back), others that I think would have been close and were unlucky to miss out are; Sheezel, Flanders, Daniels and McKay. Subscribed. Cheers!

Really enjoying your AFL discovery. Marcus Bontempelli’s name is pronounced “The Bont”. You got it right first time 👍 He’s a great player (twice runner-up in the league’s best and fairest - the Brownlow), really friendly guy, and a little person in your life may enjoy his children’s books. In contrast, Max Gawn has to be the least likeable player on the team. Just sayin’.

Kev Geelong is not pronounced that way to start it's G Long ghee is indian butter lol. This video isnt relivent based on your knoledge your brand new to finding AFL and still say instead of finals playoffs its not NFL mate. Build your knoledge on players and teams first you put the horse before the cart on this video. Its not personal Kev i am trying to help guide you so check out a few players like Ablett, Betts, Franklyn and Martin and once you've done a season and understand the game and its players the All Australian side video might not be so cringe. Your radio side read this one out like a newsreader with no knoledge it comes through. Sorry again not personal.

Thank you, I'll be sure to pronounce it correctly next time. 😊
