In case you didnt get where we get "no wukkas" from, If you start with "No f*cking worries" and swap the beginning of the two words you get "no wucking forries" which allowed you to say it without any swearing but these days it is just shortened to "no wukkas"
The CFL employs Aussie punters too. Cody Grace with the Calgary Stampeders, John Haggerty with the Toronto Argonauts, Joseph Zema of the Montreal Alouettes and Joel Whitford from the Hamilton Ti-Cats. The one thing that wasn't mentioned in this piece was that these punters are in their mid to late twenties by the time they sign their first pro contract
i was intrigued until she said first up Rugby style punt.. AFL has never been an extention of Rugby in any way shape of form unlike the NFL was created off the back burner of Rugby back in the start of 1880s when player from Yale, Walter Camp, changed the rules changes that slowly transformed rugby into the new game of American Football.
Tom Wills who started Australian football attended Rugby school in England and played cricket as well as an early version of football there back when each school in England had their own version of football before the FA or RFU were formed. He took what he learnt and adapted it to Australian conditions to help keep cricketers fit during winter ie. Australia has hard grounds compared to England so eliminated ground play like rucks and scrums but kept aerial components such as marks. So it is literally an early version of rugby football with a few rule changes and over time has evolved separately.
@@neill392 I confused the drop kick for the drop punt which is what the commenter said was a "Rugby style punt." The "Rugby style punt" which is a mistake for the AFL style punt is the drop punt. Sorry for the confusion
@@gordonfreeman7187 "Rugby style punt" is the NFL/NCAA expression used for the step to the side and kick on the half turn, as opposed to the traditional straight line kick they normally use.
It’s all in the way you make it, hot toast, butter then apply just a ‘smear’ of vegemite on top, it’s yummy. Americans make the mistake of thinking you eat it like peanut butter when in reality just a little bit of vegemite goes a long way…

Having played junior football (AFL) with Josh, it didn't come as a surprise to see him do so well in the American football game.
Go get em sloaney🤟
Is he related to Rory?
AFL is a senior, elite league. That's like saying I play under 10's NBA lol...
Rachael’s accent is amazily Broad for the US market im impressed

Kickers smickers, all hail Jordan Mailaita who plays in the OL, proud Sydney boy who grew up with rugby league
And being from Sydney his shit won't stink either. I know you've got a bridge and a Mardi gras.
There's always some rugby league fella feeling left out
Why not hail both?
Oh dear. 'No wuckers' is a shortened version of a Spoonerism, namely 'no wuucken furries', I'll leave the interpretation up to you guys.
Rugby kick, umm no love. That’s Aussie rules football kicking
On the Jets we had Lachlan edwards from Australia. He played college in Texas. I believe he is now on the panthers.
If you guys ever need punters. Just got to an local suburban football game in Victoria, Australia. You'll find 4-5 lol
Legit. Played under 18s with a bloke who wasn’t even top 5 best kicks in the side and went on to play college football.

@@fraserlackfan9383 Just call it the drop kick.
@@gordonfreeman7187 drop kick is entirely different. That's when you hit the ball on the half-volley.

He will be your most important player Saturday night against UTSA. #BirdsUp
Ha good one. Still better than UTSA's punter. Your punter had the game of his life vs North Texas, proud of him🤣
Well well well someone has a bf now 🤗
the stadiums backdrop tho
No wukkas is means "no f#$@^& worries"
hehe commentator does realise what no wucka's means heheh translation: no fucking worries,
Please never say Rugby style punt ever again
No wukkas is short for no fucking worries.
If only they could learn to say Aussie properly 🙄
Am a aussie still can't stand Vegemite
It’s all in the way you make it, hot toast, butter then apply just a ‘smear’ of vegemite on top, it’s yummy. Americans make the mistake of thinking you eat it like peanut butter when in reality just a little bit of vegemite goes a long way…
Butter and cheese with avo
Leave paradise for a dump
Rugby style punt…….stupidest thing I have ever heard.
Okay but why does the american voiceover journalist have an aussie accent?
Because she is Aussie
It's explained in the very first 5 seconds of the video.
0:45 what’s up with the puffy blue sleeves she’s wearing, and the ridiculous earring he’s wearing? Is this some sort of attempt at a Seinfeld episode?
Just for reminder afl is not rugby
