AFL Is one of the most paid & played sport in australia. Aussie rules is very different too League or Rugby union, especially the goalposts and the points.

AFL was first founded in 1858, there are 2,659 Clubs in australia. To tackle you could just tackle them or hop on their shoulder with all your wait to shut them down. There are 12 bounces you do with the ball because you need to pass it to get to the goal but you’re only allowed 17 walks so you have to be strategic.
