AFL is older than most of the sports you mentioned and was one of the first codified sports. Started around the late 1850's to keep cricket players fit in the winter. Its been around for a long time. Glad you enjoyed it.
the aboriginals also played a game similar to AFL as well and the ball was made from possum skin
It's the oldest codified form of football
My school played the very first game.
This is a game that has been played in Australia since just before the American Civil War - a long history, longer than most organised sports.
VFA being the first form of the AFL, started in 1877, the civil started in 1861. It is very close on timeline but not as you put it.
yes it was some what a thing in the 1850's but its wasn't a sport at that point, it was a way to keep cricket players fit in the winter months. wasn't until the 1870's they thought to make it a sport
@@manic_maddi yeah, that’s why I called it a ‘game’ rather than a’ sport’
@@gerryhuntman thats fair, some people could have possibly taken it the other way.
@@manic_maddi yeah and the whole point of the original comment was to dispel the view that Australian Rules is recent in international terms…
Something to bear in mind, is an AFL field huge, and a player will run between 12 and 20km (13 miles) in a game. There's no swapping between offensive lines and defence ones, and after a goal, it's about 30 seconds before play resumes. It's a crazy spot
i remember i tried running around a local football field when i was younger, got tired about halfway XD
Players get to know approximately how far 15 metres is with experience. It's probably around 10-12 running strides for the average player, so it's an approximation. An umpire won't penalize a player unless it's blatantly obvious he's run too far, so a player can often get away with an extra metre or so.
3:42 So the score breakdown is as follows, and we’ll use the example in the video.
Collingwood 20-10-130
Carlton 18-12-120
Goals (6) + Behinds (1) = Points
So in this case, Collingwood has scored 20 goals worth 6 points each (6x20=120) plus 10 behinds worth 1 point each (10x1=10) equaling 130 points (120+10=130)
That's a great explanation of the scores, I have seen a few of these reactions and people explaining it to the reactor using other scores from a game they've watched or another made up scoreline. I don't understand why they don't do as you did and use the example given in the video. I've tried my best to explain it like you have in the past using the video's example but admittedly not as well as you have here.
Scoring coulda done with a bit of extra explanation, but basically:
20 goals (x 6 pts = 120) + 10 behinds (1 pt each) = 130 pts
Just came say the same thing, it’s a bit annoying that they don’t explain that bit as well as you just did.
and a team can win by scoring less goals too if they score a shed load more behinds to make up (a bit like NFL where a team can win on field goals over a team scoring touchdowns). Of course that can be hard if one team scores 10 goals more than the other but I spose it could happen.
Great start to our great game. It's fast, non stop, tough and spectacular. If you try for too many rules too early, you'll only get confused. Start by watching highlights, like the one suggested, the 2018 Grand Final. If you want to see the crowd go ballistic, watch Buddy kick his 1000th goal.

you mean best gf ever lmao
Been around for more than 150 years so it’s been here before those other sports
AFL Grand Final is today (Sat 30 Sep). Collingwood vs Brisbane. Which of course means that all the supporters of the other 16 teams will be Brisbane supporters for the day.
YE BRISBANE! (I go for West Coast but cause they not in grand finals Go Brisbane!)
Ahaha so true, go the pies!
@@Twirlinggamerfail
Correct. 😂
As a citizen of the USA you are probably familiar with the many Australian kickers in the NFL. Ben Graham and Darren Bennett are two that spring to mind. Bennett freaked the NFL fans out by completing a tackle. Not a punters domain when he did it.
Ben Graham is not only a champion but a humble and generous person.
From memory, Bennett made team of the decade of the nineties, despite only playing half the decade
@@butlercorp wouldn't surprise me he was better than an Italian rugby union player.
Collingwood just won the Grand Final for the 16th time.
Check out some of the games legends like, Gary Abblet senior, Plugga and Barry Hall.
A mix of Football, basketball and rugby, concocted by cricket players; to stay in shape in the off season.
Cannot throw the ball but tapping, punching the ball is allowed, so the handball (like an underarm volleyball serve) came into existence, and became a key part of the game.
This is an aspect of the game derived from Gaelic or Irish football. Hurling may also have some influence here.
Australian rules football was the very first football to ever have the rules written down and it was invented by a famouse cricketer in and around 1856 to help crickers to stay fit in the cricket off season but became serious around the late 1800s and has since become a cult like game in this country.
It was a Victorian game for years with only Victorian teams as the VFL but much later had other states got involved so it became the AFL it is the richest game in the country and very very skillfull.
The WAFL (1885) and SANFL (1877) are both older than the VFL (1897). The first codified game in Sydney was 1877 between a local club and Carlton.
Rules, this game has a lot in common with Irish or Gaelic football. So that should be mentioned as a contributing factor in the evolution of the sport.
Strategies, interesting point to mention. Certain coaches and coaching strategies have been introduced that have changed the game. Two of the most adaptable and or successful strategies that spring to mind are the 'running game' introduced by Jack Oatey in the early sixties that used handballing as an attacking strategy and the ability to run across defensive and attacking lines. The flood, which changed the game where field positions lost a great degree of relevance. The ability of the team to spread out from a homogeneous mass on gaining possession of the ball. Rodney Eade gets the nod as the coach most likely to be responsible for this strategy. It is more recent than the first strategy and is an evolving game plan which has been tinkered with constantly. Emphasis on defence all over the playing area has been the most significant. Screening, a basketball strategy evolving from this. Australian rules football is a lot older than basketball making the'tip off' as something that originated in the sport.
Nothing to do with Irish football.
@@InfinitePlain nothing to back up your statement, is no statement at all mate. The airheads who think they have got it right without facts. Anyway I'm on a train to Paris and they're running some nice scenery past the windows so I'll get back to that.
AFL is played in all states but is most popular in the southern states.
It's a terrific, exciting game and like anything great, we like to pull it down a peg or three.
We call it, 'Aerial Ping Pong'.
The rules make sense if you understand they are mainly there to keep the ball moving/make the game flow.
You can't tackle someone unless they have the ball. Having to kick it/hand ball it (get caught with it = penalty) rather than throw it/drop it to get rid of it (if just dropping it was allowed, no one would ever be able to be tackled, because as soon as you saw a tackle coming = drop the ball) makes sense as well.
The bounce thing is to stop players "putting it under their arm and running with it", because then too much like rugby. The bounce isn't very hard to do (every "Aussie rules state" everyone plays it at school, and I was the most average Aussie rules player ever, and I could bounce the ball on the run), you just make sure you bounce it at the right angle, and it comes back.
The scoring makes sense in that there are 6 points to a goal. So 10 goals 6 - 66 points.
The high mark is a feature of the game.
Glad you like it. Our grand Final is this weekend, and it is always a sell out at almost 100 thousand. The finals games at the MCG have all been 90,000 fans at the games.
10x6=66???
Would recommend watching highlights from the 80s and 90s afl games because it’s a totally different sport now than it was then and there’s some massive fights and hits. It’s just brilliant.
I was born in 1995, but I watched a game from 1992, Players had more passion and goal kicking accuracy, one player kicked 14 goals in a single game, not even Buddy Franklin does that with today's equivalent
@@josephlerz6889 Flooding killed off this aspect of the game. It is a strategy that has made field positions irrelevant to a degree and the aspects of a full forwards game are greatly changed. It is now not uncommon to see all or most of the players occupying twenty five percent of the playing area now.
The rules have changed so much and I hate how you can barely even tackle now without going to court
@@MissTique10 You can say that again. Players need to read a rule book every season. If it ain't broke......
@@MissTique10Some tackles I agree had to be changed. I mean the 90s games had so many more concussions
20 Goals + 10 Behinds = 130 pts. FYI, Aussie Rules is the oldest Codified Football in the world. It's rules were written in the mid 1850s.
Greatest game there is. It's been codified for 160years.
Try 50 best marks, 50 biggest goals, know your enemy big hits.
FYI.
The Australian game (Aussie Rules) was the very first sport to use numbers on their jerseys.
For many years the Collingwood Football Club had the highest membership of ANY sporting club in the world.
We had a Canadian work for my dad at his farm, he’d never been to an AFL game in his life, so we decided to take him to a game. He loved it to.
Best game in the world 🌎!!!
AFL is better than nfl
Way way way way way way way way way way way way way better

nice video mate. My club - the Richmond Tigers began back in 1885, black jersey with a yellow diagonal stripe. Up the Tiges'! 💛🖤
I just watched another show about gridiron using aussie rules players as punters as we have the best punters in the world. Aussie rules also changed how the gridiron punter kicks. Instead of holding the ball till kick they started using the aussie rules dropkick instead. So next time u watch american footy, dont forget to thanks the aussie rules players for influencing and changing ur game.
The grand final or premiership match is normally around 100k crowd attendance and regularly well over that. The last few finals this month have been around 95k.
Check out the greater Western Sydney vs. westernbulldogs 2016 preliminary final. That is one of the best games.
with the scoreboard they never explain but, using the video scoreboard as an example 20 10 130, 20 is the amount of goals kick (20 x 6) 10 is the amount of behinds (add 10 points ) then u get ur final score (120 + 10 = 130)
nice video, probably the greatest game on the planet
Agreed
AFL is the reason we're taking your punting spots, lol
There's a British guy that's expanded on the video and is alot more comprehensive I can't remember his name but that's the one your looking for.
Also AFLs biggest hits part 2 is definitely what your looking for
with the scoring if its
20 10 130 it means 20 goals which is 120 plus 10 points which is 10 plus the 120 which is 130 then the total score is 130
hope i could help you out
Some of the legends Lee Mathews ,Both father son Ablett , Eddie Betts and many more
The good thing about footy,is that the fans always bring flags,nearly ALL the time❤❤❤Cheers,and go freooo!
Best sport ever created by man.
Did you ever get around to watching the USAFL? I’m an Aussie and play footy over here for my local league the GFL… but I’ve know about the USAFL for about 16 years years or so? It was surprising to learn but they are up to the 25th season!
I swear no one watches NRL when they look up Australian football 😂 it’s the second version of Aussie footy 😂
NFL and Rugby are throw and run with the ball . Soccer , AFL and Gaelic are really the only games that the main way to score is to kick the ball through the goals . You have had and do have many Aussie AFL players punting in the NFL and college football in the USA , Michelle Dickson is the most notable one at the moment . American kids wanting to be the quarter back , Aussie kicks start of kicking a ball as soon as they can walk
I'm from Melbourne born , played footy all my life love it mate and I barrack for the Richmond Tigers..😊
Footies so crazy here, in Victoria we get a day off for the grand final
AFL is played on an oval because it was first played and developed by the Australian cricket team (cricket is also played on an oval) to keep its players fit during the winter months.
The nearest sport to AFL is Gaelic Football, but AFL was codified as a sport before Gaelic Football. AFL was played 33 years before basketball.
Points I also made. Gaelic football and hurling have a lot of similarities. An example of why Irish people both male and female have been so successful at adapting to the game. I understand that Australian rules is now a major part of the physical education syllabus in Ireland.
You should check our Netball, the videos never do it justice but it's pretty fun to watch given how incredibly fast a turnover happens due to the speed at which teams can score goals. Also really subtly (sometimes not subtly) aggressive which is hilarious.
New AFL 23 video game is out April 23, 2023.
Its gone down to No.6 now. But at the time the three on top from memory were NFL, MLB and EPL.
AFL or Aussie Rules is fast-paced and relentless. When you support a team, you 'barrack' for them. It's very different to NFL and Rugby (Union or League) because there is no line of scrimmage, no offside, no forward passing rules etc. The idea is just to kick or handpass the ball to your teammates as you try to progress down the field to get within scoring distance (generally anywhere inside the 50 metres arc although some players can score from well outside 50. If your team can control possession and kick and handpass it well, they get the scoring opportunities. If a player kicks it to you and you catch it (called 'marking') you get a free kick (not so when you catch a handball). If the midfielders can get it to the tall forwards and they mark it in easy scoring distance , job done (if the kicker is accurate). If the defenders flood the the 50 metres area and you get tackled with the ball and you had "prior opportunity" to get rid of it, you've turned the ball over to the other team. If a stoppage occurs it's a ball up and the two centres try to tap the ball to their teammates (like basketball) Footy is like a fast-paced game of "keepings off" where the team with the ball is trying to advance the ball down the field close enough to kick a goal, without turning it over the opposition. Try watching a few games. Go Saints!
For the final scores the 1st column is the goals which is 6 points and the 2nd column is the points which is 1 point then the last one is the total
Scoring is pretty simple. Take the collingwood score for example. 20 goals, 10 behinds. 20*6 is 120, + 10 = 130.
Aussie Rules Football is actually the OLDEST codefied football game.
i love watching people from other countries experience our home sport lol, glad you thought it was interesting
(if u cant decide on a team to go for, collingwood's the best (always has been and always will be) 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
So the Collingwood supporter base has go so bad now you have to recruit people from overseas who have no idea about the game to support you...
@@bowenwalker2087 ok non-collingwood supporter
@@o_ija I wonder how you knew that 😀
@@bowenwalker2087 😈😈😈
20+10=130 10 is the points part so 1×10=10 20 is the number of goals each goal is worth 6 points so 20×6=120 which then equats to 20+10=130
The NFL actual play time is 11 mins on average and run about 2 kilometres. AFL play for at least 80 mins and run about 14 kilometres. No pads or helmets.
Few inaccuracies, 1. We call them umpires not ref’s 2. The MCG can actually host 100,024 people and you rarely have a grand final with less then 95,000 people

AFL
It was ascertained in the late 60's that more people in the state of Victoria, Australia watched a game of Australian rules than any other sport in the world per head of population.
@@grantadam7674and Adelaide and Perth were even better per capita
should watch one of the AFL swans players pop his dislocated knee cap back into place and continues playing
Highest attendance is 121,696 for the 1070 Grand Final.
Aussie rules is a unique game that goes back 140yrs , nothing compared to basket ball, 🏉 rugby or soccer😅.
165 years
These clips are the sound of my childhood
I would argue that Aussie Rules is closer to Basketball.
There is no offside
Players have set positions around the field.
There is high and low point options, like basket ball's two and three point shots.
It is designed to be a relatively high scoring, free flowing game.
Players have body types closer to basketball players, more endurance than power
The championship game usually has a crowd of 100,000.
I am from Australia I love Aussie rules I go for Melbourne and it’s the best game I’ve ever played keep it up
I think you should react to one of the western bulldogs games! I don’t have a specific one, sorry.
You wanna see a game, look up 2023 nrl premiership. broncos vs panthers. i wont give anything away but theyre saying it was the best grand final of the history of nrl
As an Aussie it’s both brutal and fun tho no tackling in school outside yes allowed
A goal is 6 points wich is the the middle post and and the outside post ore worth 1 point who has the most in the end wins and when the catch the ball when the team mate kicks it it’s called a mark and the get a free kick from where they caught it
You were talking when the scoring was explained, between the two big posts is a goal and 6 points, between the big post and the smaller outside post is 1 point and if you hit the big post it is 1 point so the scoring they put up 20 10 130 is 20x6 + 10x1 = 130
Watch the 2023 Grand Final between Collingwood (my team) and Brisbane it was judged one of the greatest games ever
My team Geelong won this year's Grand Final against Sydney. Not a close game.
Watch Geelong v Richmond or the Qualifying Final between Geelong and Colling would.
They have Mini Matches as well that show a bit more.
Enjoy!
cats fan with 'hawk' in user name - how do you get away with that?? 🤣
Another good video is "Here comes the boom Aussie rules greatest hits".
The grand final is closer to 100,000 attendees than 90,0000
They did tell you the roles. Forward, defender and centre players. There aren’t any specific roles. As for penalties, I admit I’m not super into afl myself, but I think the ball just gets handed to the other team. It’s not super complex.
Love how he calls it a new sport 😂😂😂
Football has been around since the 1800s long before Soccer , Rugby or any of those, it came from a game played by the Australian Aboriginals.
hey if you want a good video for more in-depth rules, a channel called Ninh Ly made a good one. He has videos covering the rules on basically every sport ever as well if you ever wanna learn more. nice vid btw
THE SCORE thing.. is divided up into goals, behinds and total so 20 10 130 is 20 goals at 6 points each, 10 behinds at 1 point each. so 120 (20x6) + 10(10x1) = 130
18 12 120 108+12=120
Nfl is called Gridiron here in Australia, and we have some decent rural teams, we also play flag. AFL was invented in 1897 and originally called the Victorian Football League after Queen Victoria and said State.
Have you ever hear of SANFL, WAFL
Australian Rules Football is the oldest codified football sport in the world, 1858, 6 years before even soccer or rugby. The VFL (also WAFL and SANFL) was original, before the AFL was formed in the 1990's to become Australia wide.
AFL was first played in 1858.
One team in afl, they get the players from prisons. That's the stipulation, they all must be currently in prison on medium to serious offences. That team have vertical black and white stripes
Go the Power ❤ Port Adelaide is the oldest team. Check them out
Basically, the Australian version of an old Australian aboriginal game called Marngrook.
Greatest game in the world!
I think calling footie Australia’s biggest sport is controversial as the farther north and west you go it’s less popular, now cricket, cricket is very popular
UP THE BOMBERS! ❤️🖤❤️🖤
CARN THE PIES!! ❤
I go for the best team Geelong
scoreboard -: Goal (6 points) Behind (1 point) TOTAL SCORE
Next time watch nrl from straya I reccomend watching the 2023 grand final Broncos vs the panthers
As a Australian who has never lived anywhere else I support Richmond as you can see. And I appreciate this video.
-Anonymus person from Australia
(And also its not ref its umpire)
they're called refs as well.
@@BenState No they're called umpires
From a aussie go the pies and also afl started 1887 but before that we hade vfl like afl but only for 1 state but people travel to see it and vfl was made 1790 something
I love footy! It is so entertaining to watch. Go Adelaide crows( even though I am from Melbourne)😂
It's a very dangerous game, a lot of players suffer from concussion and end up having long term brain damage in later in life...
I think in time some sort of protection head gear will be mandatory.
Gaelic football and Australian rules football are very similar. American football players would not have the stammer to play a full game of ether code because the don't run as much.
Check out the Jamie Elliot kick against Essendon FC 2022 On the siren
this is out of date now..its 4 quarters of 25 minutes plus "time on", and 23 games in the regular season
It does my head in that sports such as GridIron or Rugby can be called "football". In gridiron, the ball makes contact with the foot approx 3% of gameplay; in rugby this might go all the way up to 5%.
I concede that the ball is moved forward in AFL using hand-play a considerable amount of the time, but kicking is a very large part of the game - albeit not as much as in Association Football (soccer).
In fairness the term football is because it’s a ball game where you use your feet to move as opposed to polo where you use a horse to move.
Why didn't you google the game before you commented on it, most of these guys have been playing the game since they were 6 or 7 and the 16 yard thing is you bounce whenever you want as long as it's within the allowed distance, enjoy the game mate it's a great experience ❤
