What’s the difference between Rugby and Australian Rules Football?

March 26th, 2010 | by admin |

I think that Australians are tougher than regular people, so I’m trying to convince my friends to play by Australian rules.

"Aussie Rules" is a totally different sport than rugby.

See the website below for more details of international leagues. If you live in a country where there’s a competition, perhaps you can play.

    Aussie rules:
    Oval field about 180 meter long
    18 players a side
    you must bounce the ball while running
    to pass it you must hold it in one hand and hit it with your other fist
    to score you kick the ball between two pair of poles
    RUGBY:
    rectangular field, 100 yards long
    pass the ball backwards (no need to bounce)
    15 players
    to score a try you lie the ball behind the ingoal line

    and hundreds of other differences….

    Rugby is a much tougher contact sport. Play it and find out. Australian futbol is a game of sissies running much too great a distance without getting their ass kicked. Keep that silly game "down-under" where it belongs…
