      Protection? You're forgetting, many of them use an extra dry deodorant, and toothpaste that protects against cavities. The grounds are normally 165m to 178m long, 125 to 145m wide, adapted from cricket grounds. Almost all of the players are 6 to 7 ft tall, 85kg to 120kg. Players must be equally skilled left and right side at full pace. Running is essential, endurance and sprint. Nic Naitanui is almost 6'9" (204 cm), 110 kg, was clocked 1kmh slower than Usain Bolt over 20 m. These are THE supreme athletes playing the greatest game in the world. Watch; "What is AFL Aussie Rules Explained".
      Just an inter suburban game had 90,000 spectators 3 weeks ago. The electric feeling at a Grand Final would power England for a month. Watch; AFL Grand Finals, 2005, 2006, 2018. Every game has hits, not all as bad as these. The skills required are beyond belief.

    You're 100% right about their body shapes. Because they have to run such huge distances at speed they can't have too much size. The avg. player runs 8-10 miles a game. They're running machines.
    Don't get me wrong. They're big boys. The avg. is around 6'2" 190lbs. And they're hard. To get ready for a season they train between 3-5 months. It's gruelling.

    Basically the difference between a Rugby League/Union player and an AFL player would be that they'd be built more like a Pitbull and AFL players are built more like Greyhounds. They're not as bulked up, but you can't be in the AFL because of the vast amount of running each game. You're correct, the quarters do basically go for around 30 mins, sometimes a min or 2 less, but sometimes even 5 mins more... but a game is always around 2ish hours. That's 2ish hours of pretty much non stop running, so yeah... AFL players are the fittest ball-sport athletes on planet earth by a long, long way. Add to that though, 2ish hours of constantly getting tackled and hit hard at every contested ball and these guys are insanely tough. These guys might not be built like NFL or Rugby players, but they are just all muscle with the engine that's unmatched by any athlete short of maybe a marathon runner or triathlete.

    good reaction gents. Anyway, im in my 50s', and i had to retire young from footy at the age of 26yrs. I was what is called a "bullocky " type of player who has to go in and get ball and give it out. From the age of 17 onwards i had 2 knee recons, several broken fingers and thumbs, quite a few finger dislocations , 5 broken ribs (multi times) , busted lips( no teeth thank goodness )knocked out twice, and finally i managed to get a badly ruptured spleen I was quietly proud of the fact that i was able to play over 100 games of senior footy. Oh and by the way. The hits from before the 80's were more gruesome and varied in how blokes could cop it. I hope you have a nice day!

    Have you heard of a little game called ...... CRICKET lol. Yes, they do build oval stadiums for that and yes, AFL is played on Cricket Fields. BTW, no send-off rule in AFL, only reports being dealt with after the game.
    With tackling or body hitting (hip and shoulder, as it is called), you have to keep it between the knees and the shoulders. Any hit outside of that safe zone, such as to the head, will get you reported and if found guilty by the tribunal, then a certain amount of suspension time to be served out of the game can be expected.
    With scoring, you have 4 posts each end in total. Two large ones in the centre, with a smaller one either side. The object is to kick the ball between the two large posts without being touched, that is a goal and worth 6 points. If the ball is touched through hits one of the big posts or kicked between a large post and the other small post, that is called a behind and counts for 1 point.
    You then simply combine the total points scored, both goals and behinds for the total score :)

    Nah mate, no such thing as sending anyone off the field. No mid game suspensions, red cards or sin bin. If you're injured badly, you have people on the interchange bench to help, but even that puts pressure on all players.

    The AFL these days discourage "bumps" where the player goes for the man and not the ball. There is no send off rule, but players can get suspended from future matches where an umpire reports a player for a bump, depending on the severity and if the other player gets injured. Incidents get referred to the tribunal to determine the outcome.

    No send off rule in Australian football except in the national league, AFL. Even then its a new rule and ive never heard of it being used. You will get suspended for most of these though.
    When the player pushed the other player on the ground after a big hit and you guys said ‘he wasn’t happy with that’ (about 16.10) that was actually two brothers - the selwoods (there were actually 3 of them in the AFL) - on opposing teams. He was just giving bis brother a bit of stick.

    The trick to not getting injured is to attack the ball at 100%. If your opponent is only going at 80% they are the one's that will get hurt. It's an oval pitch because they are also cricket grounds in the summer. You can't get sent off, but you can get reported and miss a few weeks instead. Soccer is not popular here, this the most watched sport in Australia and 4th in avergae attendance in the world.

    It would be no surprise to learn that many Aussie rules players in later life suffer from a chronic concussion syndrome that leads to a type of brain damage … there is a lot to be said for helmets. The long term brain injury is a known risk but still no helmets. Not something we should be proud of

    The game is Australian Rules Football, or footy for short.
    The AFL and its love struck media have definitely tried to Hi Jack the game and make it AFL only.....
    The AFL is the highest standard played and the leading competition, but still only a competition.
    The AFL is not THE GAME and hopefully never will be.
    The game is played on a cricket oval / ground.
    The game was invented by a Melbourne professional cricketer to help keep the cricket players fit and active during the winter / off season..... so the first game was played where the MCG ( Melbourne Cricket Ground ) is now located.
    As that was all parkland back then I believe the goal posts were a mile wide but after about a week , no one scored so the game was abandoned.
    They then set about writting some rules. lol

I'd say the same about any sport really (cricket being my absolute least favourite of all, which as hubby and F-I-L were groundsmen for Glamorgan cricket club and worked on one of The Ashes Test matches, doesn't make me popular with the men in my family 🤣🤣🤣)

    The game does appear to be a mish mash of other sports, yes...... but it was the first codefied football competition in the world with the first 2 football clubs ever formed, maybe the first 3.
    Soccer did exist first but their was no organised competition and no soccer clubs...... it was a pastime or training sport of Athletic Clubs, but not Football Clubs.
    So..... The Melbourne Football Club was the worlds FIRST football club, and the VFA ( Victorian Football Association ) was the worlds first organised footy competition.
