  • Sav Rocca biggest Kick in then NFL.

  • punk ass cheap ass raven that is exact;y something a raven would do to a eagle cheap shot them.

  • Is there anybody who can be polite anymore? Just look at townsvillefield's comment. It's a perfect example of how mean people can be.

  • just signed with the chargers.

  • garbage hit

  • damn 3 years later and 63,000 views lol

  • Comment removed

  • As for what townsevillefield said below, hitting someone who is looking the other way is expected, because the only other option is to let him go by, make the tackle or whatever. This is one of the dangers speciifc to football. As someone who played on the kickoff teams (I know Rocca was punting), I know you can't be looking everywhere, and you're eventually gonna get flattened. Are you saying that in Aussie rules football you can't hit someone who's looking the other way?

  • @newhampshireyankee it was illegal because it wasn't relevant to the play.

  • It had nothing to do with him being from Australia. Don't know if a flag was thrown. Cheap shot. But f he was near the runner, and was someone other than the punter, no flag would have been thrown and it definitely would have been a good solid hit.

  • If he was destroyed, why is he still playing 3 years later, dickhead?

  • Wow TomBraudy way to totally copy(hypercam) this video from somebody else on YouTube and take it as your own.

  • Sav Rocca said the only thing that hurt about the hit was landing on his arse.

    I think that's the difference between AFL, rugby and the NFL. In the NFL you can make real big hits, but usually they just look awesome.

    In rugby and the nfl if you targetted a player you could seriously injure him relatively easily. In the NFL its far more difficult to take a player out of the game, because of the padding.

    A blindside hit in the AFL would hurt more than this hit. And i think the AFL is gay as shit

  • The kid should keep his head on a swivel

    In other weak ass sports like Rugby and Australian Rules its illegal to touch anybody except the ball carrier.

    In American football every player on the field is fair game.

    This kid learned that pretty quickly after this shot I'm sure

  • if it's legal why did Barnes get fined $12,500?

    hmmm?

  • Because it was uncalled for.

  • Kid???

    I'd like to see you call him that to his face, bigmouth.

    Typical arsehole yank!

    Smashing someone who isn't looking is real brave isn't it!

    Welcome to america!

    Land of CUNTS!

  • @hacimed

    No, in Aussie Rules you can level someone who isn't ball carrier, as long as you use your body.

  • @Aliquote

    My muscles are so big that they go all the way up to the sky...

    You should be really afraid of me...

  • @hacimed Take your Pads & Helmet you bunch of Fairies.

    Australian Football is a tougher sport than American Football, because we don't wear ''Soft'' padding. And its the best & most exciting game in the world.

    Live in the real world Dip Shit.

  • @AFFTL

    Butthurt much?

    If you are so tough, get off youtube's safety zone, put your money where your big mouth is and play against the fairies. Let us all know how soft the faires were for you once you wake up from your coma, dip shit.

  • @richard1972r Lol. Big tough Man, with tough words over the Net, who's trying to act tough. If I wanted to prove how tough I was, why would I play a soft game lol. I play real Man's game.

    Why don't you come play Australian Football & see how tough you are with out any protection on.

  • @AFFTL

    I played linebacker in college and had too many injuries and one of them required surgery. Padding in footbll is required by law because too many players were killed in the past from vicious tackles. No one has died in AFL. If no one gets killed in your game that doesn't use protection, then there's NOTHING they can do to me that I didn't get it worse in football, padding or not. Preciesly because you think is soft is why you should get off and come play.

  • @richard1972r And who do you think you are the Termminator, There are players 6,9, 6'6, 6'4 who way around 110 kilos & more. If they where to Tackle & Bump you it would hurt.

  • @AFFTL

    Reading comprehension is not your best skill, is it? I didn't say they wouldn't hurt me. I said they wouldn't hurt me ANY WORSE than I got while playing football..

  • @richard1972r No there weren't hitting as hard before Padding & Helmets, you can see it in clips.

    The reason you have had people die in American Football. Is because unlike Australian Football & other contact sports, when you go into Packs you don't tuck your Head to the side to protect you head. You ram you Head into a another person, Stupid.

    Well according to reality, if you have something in the way of something, its not going to hurt as much.

  • @AFFTL

    Which clip is that? It's gotta be pretty old because the padding and helmets came about in 1910. You ram mostly with your shoulder. And since the shoulder is so close to the head, head collisions are unavoidable, IDIOT. OK, so it's all about they way you tackle that you don't need head protection rather than just being tough motherfuckers then?

    "If you have something in the way of something, it's not going to hurt as much"? Did you even try to make sense with that retarded line?

  • @richard1972r And reading & understanding isn't your strong point. is it?. I meant they would hurt you harder, in some situations, because you don't have Padding on.

  • @AFFTL

    And still you are the one who can't comprehend. Padding doesn't cover much but the shoulders and chest and it's only hard plastic. It's not the fucking iron man armor, moron. To hurt me harder than what I did in football, the tackle would have to turn me into a vegetable. Again, a game that doesn't cause lethal injuries to unprotected players, in no way can be worse than football that fuck up even the most protected players.

  • @richard1972r Your as thick as the Padding you wear, your making no sense. You put your Head straight down & go straight forward. The smart thing to do, would tuck your head to the side instead of putting SOFT Helmets on. That's is the reason why you have deaths in American Football, its not tough, its STUPID.

    Those shoulder Pads are huge & yes their hard Plastic. & again you don't read there have been DEATHS in Australian Football. It doesn't get more lethal than that.

  • @AFFTL

    And you are about as dumb as a jockstrap. In a game where two walls of offensive and defensive players collide into each other in full force, heads are gonna get bumped no matter where they turn it, retard. The only deaths in Aussie rules have been just 3 deaths and it was due to heart failure, not collision-related injury. Get back to me when you average 42 deaths/year like football pre-padding.

  • @richard1972r Your an Arrogant, Ignorant, Idiot. Your points have been disproven & your game isn't harder or tougher. & fuck do some research, there have been a lot of Deaths in Australian Football, just none at professional level, you idiot. Get back to me when you play with out Protective Equipment & actual have to put your body on the line.

    Grow a Brain, pull your Head out of your Ass & live in real world.

  • @AFFTL

    I'm an arrogant ignorant idiot? You're the cocksucker mocking football players being "soft" for wearing safety gear. That spells arrogant ignorant idiot to me. Even if you included college and high school level, the death rate in AR is still very minuscule. Your game tackling is practically safer because high tackles are not allowed unlike football. So quit your bullshit about having tons of deaths in your game because you're the one who needs to grow a brain if you beleive that.

  • @richard1972r What a lot of Americans refuse to comprehend, is in Australian Football most of the time you wouldn't get to the point of become a Vegetable.

    Because with out Padding on you can't take as hard & get ridiculously hard tackled then dumped on your Head. Your opponent couldn't charge Head first with no concern for his own safety & couldn't tackle as hard. You first would get a Puncherd Lung, Knocked Out, or Broken Ribs ect, most of the time you wouldn't be able to get to that state.

  • @AFFTL

    If they can't reach that state, then AR is not worse hitting than AF, because there have been PLENTY of players that got fucked up for life. Just ask Kevin Everett who got paralyzed after a tackle. Ask him also how much it didn't hurt with the padding, idiot.

    9SoDPFhT-u8

  • @richard1972r What does that prove, there have been players that been Paralyzed in Australian Football. That doesn't prove anything u Idiot. You play with Protective Equipment, it makes it so it doesn't hurt as much & in some cases u can go at the ball harder. Your players are protected Australian Footballer players aren't.

    Write back again, I don't care. If u like American Football fine. But your sport isn't harder or tougher than Australian Football. That's a Fact & its clear as day.

  • @AFFTL

    It proves something when the player was paralyzed through protective gear, retard. If it wasn't for that, he would have been killed on the field. And there you go again talking through your dumb ass about how it doesn't hurt much because of the padding. And double the retard points for not even played the game before to know what you are talking about, unlike me, and still claim football isn't tougher. There should be a limit to how fucking stupid you can be.

  • @AFFTL

    And I am not being tough and I don't know why you respond to my challenge to play NFL with a challenge to play AFL because I've never said AFL was soft, have i? You're the one talking tough about not needing "soft" padding like us to play. Hence, my suggestion to come play the game if you think it's so soft.

  • @richard1972r Get your facts right Pal, people have Died playing Australian Football. People have been paralyzed, had puncherd Lungs, been Knocked Out, Broken Ribs, Broken Bones. Its a very dangerous sport

    You can get hurt in the NFL & its a hard game in a way. But with Padding & Helmet on u can get hurt, but u couldn't take the hits you do with out them on. With out Helmet & Pads on u couldn't crash Head first into Packs & dive Head first into Packs with out a helmet on u would break ur neck

  • @richard1972r With helmet & Pads on you can get hurt, but it doesn't hurt as much because of the Protective Equipment. And some cases u couldn't hit as hard with out them on.

    And I live in Australia, there are next to none America Football clubs in Australia.

  • @AFFTL

    You can't be this dense. You really think it doesn't hurt much with padding? The padding only minimizes the risk of death. It doesn't do shit about the world of hurt a 265lbs linebacker will bring upon you when he makes you go KO. With all the padding and helmet, bones are broken, skulls are cracked and ligaments are torn. Get that done to you and then tell me it doesn't hurt with padding. They did hit as hard in the past w/o padding. That's why there were so many players killed.

  • damn that's a big hit, sav got jacked up lol

  • NEWSFLASH!

    Barry Hall breaks Antwan Barnes' Jaw after cheap shot!

  • NEWSFLASH!!

    Antwan Barnes, has had a Heart Attack, after playing 15 minutes of his first AFL game!

    "He just couldn't keep up with the relentless pace" sources say.

  • Im australian and i like sav rocca,

    But because i go for "Carlton" in the AFL (aussie rules) i thought it was awesome that the collingwood pussy got owned..

    5 star if you HATE COLLINGWOOD

  • he played for the kangaroos you fucking moron.

  • he originally played for collingwood then went to kangaroos mate get a clue!

  • its like saying judd is an eagles pussy, which no one would say as he now plays for carlton.

  • That was Antwan Barnes. Barnes is like 6'1" 245 and Rocca is fuckin' 6'5'' 265. He's a lot bigger den barnes.

  • Height goes into factor. More height equals more weight.

    Sav Rocca is a beastly punter but he's too old to play every down in a NFL game.

  • lol hes wondering if hes still in the same football game after that one

    cheap ass shot btw

  • Wow American Football is a tough game isn't it? And Ed Reed sure is a big boy who can put big hits on guys who aren't even watching. What a shithouse sport.

  • dat wasnt ed reed

  • Is it number 50 or number 20?

  • number

    50

  • Yeah that hit didn't rattle Rocca at all. I am American and I love AFL, it is so much fun to watch. The players are extremely athletic. And tough. More American's should watch it. search on youtube: AFL: Showcase - The Best of Australian Football. These sports are as different as Volleyball and Tennis. Different, but both great.

  • Haha Sav Rocca just got up straight away and laughed ,what a pansy joke of a sport American Football is

  • Go RAVENS ;D!

  • but its funny how all this australian fanboys r on here sayin dat sav was a beast over there and shit,but he comes here and becomes a punter?wtf?i figuered hed b a hard hittin ass saftey or sometin.if anything he should b more of a beast now that he has pads on.but there pretty much different sports.they cant play here and im pretty sure an nfl player would get his ass handed 2 him over there.keep yo head on a swivel and u wont have 2 worry bout gettin hitsticked.

  • i aint even gone lie on dat one...dat was a fucked up unnecessary hit. and i play football and love hittin people.

  • Hey he pretty much gets paid 1 million bucks for that because the rest of the time he just punts maybe 5 times a game at most.

  • he is a good punter though, as an eagles fan im happy with him back there, instead of that shit head Dirk Johnson

  • well...in footy..not rugby..that dousent happen...coz were tough...lol....you yanks can say what u want...i jst hope one day americans get 2 c what aussie rules footy is all about and you yanks start playin it and get ur lil leagues together until after a few years youve got a fairly decent team that can atleast compete with an all australian aussie rules team....i know wed love sum international competition...and i know small leagues have already started in the u.s.....ima hope they keep growin

  • u must be fucking joking... any american nfl team would dominate fucking australian teams

  • Granted they would destroy Aussie rules players, but put them up against a professional rugby union or league team to see what their made of. There would be no dominating that's for sure.

  • dominate us at what...at american football yeh...but u guys couldnt beat us at aussie rules footy...how cocky do u yanks wanna be...lol...its our national sport...its very differnt 2 ur football...im not goin around sayin wed beat u guys in ur football...thats stupid...but if u guys came here and played aussie rules football offourse wed win.....thats obvious

  • well thatd common knowlege thats why americans made snowboarding so we could win a winter event lol.... basicly sounded like u were saying ur australian football players could come beat us at our game

  • well who cares cuz ur basically arguing 4 notin. yall cant beat us in pro football and we cant beat yall in yall sport. sounds like a stalemate 2 me huh? and please dont call us yanks. no need 4 dat.

  • im not arguing...im jst saying my opinion....my point was that its a stalemate and that the 2 cant be compared in those ways....and i didnt know u didnt like being called yanks...i still personally think aussie rules footy is a better sport coz its more action packed...faster moving...not stop and start..alot of skill involved...hard hits...great marks....beautiful kicks n close games.....but still...thats jst my opinion

  • that's a pussy hit man. uncalled for a simple nudge by someone you don't see coming is just as affective no coach would ever encourage that. and that's called head hunting for those of you who are fans but ignorant to the the sport. illegal and you better believe he got fined.

  • he didnt get fined

  • fuck afl

  • fuck you AFL rocks.

  • I'm Australian and even I consider AFL as a rubbish sport. GO EAGLES.

  • Man shut the fuck up you sound dumb football is a contact sport if you cant take a hit get the fuck off the field obviously he was tryna set his self for the tackle and he got his ass laced

  • Hitting a kicker is almost as low and downright evil as hitting a child.

  • looked like cheap shot by a faggot ass pussy to me.

  • I second that, no football player worth a flying fuck would cheapshot a KICKER

  • roccas used to that, except without all the girly padding

  • This happens all the time when he use to play in australia, only diffrence is afl dont pad up like nfl.

    lol he didnt even give a shit and just went to get back up :)

  • pure aussie

    he just gets straight back up

    no problem hahaha

  • i never saw him get up....

  • cheap shot... welcome to the US, Sav!

  • I'm a Ravens fan, and I've got to admit... this was pretty cheap. Sav's a tough guy, kudos to him.

  • they needed a big hit to get the aussie down ..... the american only needed only touch and his was down .... see the comparison ? The aussie got straight back up .... the american stayed down ...... geee i thought americans were tough ?

  • nfl suks balls

  • yer but oh well sav didnt make the Superbowl but we have Ben graham playing in it for the cardinals :)

  • that was a cheap shot.

  • All I can say is all the Australian codes ect. rugby league, rugby union and AFL are alot harder because the only tpe of protection they wear is a mouth guard not helmets sholder pads ect.

  • Yeah...

    But you don't hit like this. DAMN!

  • That was fucken cheap

  • hahaha. rocca only went down becasue he didnt see it comming. he would have smashed him if he knew it was comming. hahaha

    bloody yanks

  • I thought thats what makes AFL tough? Not knowing where ur opponent is when u are diving for the ball. I guess all those yrs in the GAYFL taught him nothing.Always expect the unexpected.

  • That excuse doesnt always work.."i ran over 40 people in the famrmers market because i was not aware...I didnt know it was coming"

  • WTF?!?!?!? shouldnt u be in jail!?!?!?!?

  • cheap shot.

  • Destroyed? That hit would be pretty routine in AFL. Without padding.

  • haha yeah right..

  • Go watch some AFL. We don't use hits like that the same way, but they happen all the time anyway.

  • THAT RAVENS PLAYER IS A FUCKIN CHEATING DOG.

    and all of you that think this is a good play, imagine if that were you getting hit, would you take that?

  • fuck that guy too bad we recked em

  • who the fuck takes there time to nail a punter

  • KABLAH!!!DAT WIGGA GOT OWNED!!!!!

  • take off that pussy padding and come play AFL or Rugby in Australia like real men then we will see who gets owned

  • Agreed

  • That dude used to play Australian Rules Football the guy that got hit

  • oh gee! thanks for letting me know, i happen to live in australia and know this already

  • amen 2 that brother!!

  • Ya its a cheap shot, but it's football get used to it.

  • How is that a cheap shot. If your on the field and the play is still going you are going the get hit nothing cheap about it. He was running to go make a play.

  • its legal for sure.. but it still is cheap. its cheap because the guy wasnt looking and really wasnt a threat. theres a difference between an illegal shot and a cheap shot.its like boxing a 10 year old and knocking the kid out.

  • ed reed hits like that anyway.

  • if u played rugby or footy u would get owned!!! take off all that padding and take hits like real men

  • just goes to show we are bred different in america...if our atheletes played ruby or footie, we would rule it

  • think not. you might have to run more than 20 meters in a game. some dick from the raiders tried out in the AFL years ago and was a joke. they played him in a reserves practise match with 17year olds and he was useless

  • and could you tell me the name of this player and what position he played in AF! i dont really believe u..y would a talented american wanna go from making millions in the nfl to playin a gay sport like footie where everyone is half your size and u gotta wear those pathetic gay lookin short shorts-hahaha-lol

  • It was years ago. I cant remember his name. All I remember is that he was black and played in the back line but never played a proper game.You also have no idea about size as the average height of players is 6'2 and they weigh less than NFL players because of the huge distances they run every game. Look at the AFL players that have moved to NFL,they have all put on a tonne of weight because of the lack of cardio workout.

  • well if he played as a linemen i bet he did suc...u caint just take any AF player and put him in AFL or rugby..the only players that would be able to do somthin in rugby or footie woul proly be NFL runningback like adrian peterson or reggie bush...i dont know why the rest of the world wants to compare 2 diff sports..its like comparin apples to oranges..and i dont doubt it but the NFL is not a game of speed, its a game of power and inches..it is very similar to chess!

  • theres a clip on youtube of dhani jones playing a game of rugby.

  • ive seen it, dhani jones was a mediocre linebacker in the NFL...Linebackers arent known for speed, they are just known for power and intelligence...they have to read what the quarter back is doin and react in seconds, like i said before u caint take any nfl player and throw him ona rugby field, maybe NFL running back might be able to do sumthin...dhani jones in that video was taught in a matter of days how to play rugby, hes been playin AF since he was 6. do you think that might be a indication!

  • an indication of what,

  • of which sport he chose as a profession, NFL or Rugby! And plus in that video wasnt he playin on a minoe league rugby team!

  • of course he wouldnt change to rugby after just 1 week of it after he'd been playing a.football all his life. and yes he's playing in a local club side, which makes his effort all that less impressive.

  • Lmao. Our smallest guys in the AFL could take down your biggest guys.

  • rofl! u think ur smallest guys could take the nfl lineman?! haha! dude the linebackers in the nfl hit so strong even tough they still were pads n now imagine if they hit that strong with pads , now how hard n painfull will be if they tackle withouth the pads! haha!

  • Lol, yeah, ok then. You obviously haven't watched too many AFL games, or seen many clips of AFL then, have you?

    Seriously, you'd be suprised how hard the smallest of guys in the AFL can tackle/bump. They don't use pads or what not, so they're used to getting hit hard.

  • well the nfl lineman can also hit hard i think harder than those of afl even tough they r small

  • its different....in the afl the average tackle is nuthin like the way you guys tackle in the u.s....u guys r very head on....u can bace yourself...except 4 this hit..but apparently that was a cheap shot....so i head on charge as u see in the nfl wouldnt work very often in the afl

  • @archansx ... but they use pads, so they're soft. full stop.

  • aww poor faggit got hit

  • wow dude. there is no pride in knocking the shit out of a PUNTER whatsoever

  • HE a freakin punter...who by the way was cheap shot. Go ravens. You cheap shotin pricks.

  • Yeah I know right, typical Ravens hit, fuckin pieces of shit they are.

  • hahaha dude the punter should have kept his head on a swivel. not atwan barnes fault. i guess that means hines ward is the biggest piece of shit there is cuz he does it all the time.

  • Ok dantheravensfan, at least Hines Ward hits are on defensive players who dish out those hits on a weekly basis, he's not hitting the weakest players on the team when they aren't even involved in the play. That hit was fuckin dirty and pretty sad if you ask me. Hitting a punter when he's the last person running down the field behind the team? There's a reason he got a penalty and it's not because it was a legal hit.

  • That's so true

  • This was a huge cheap shot. He is no where near the runner, he is paying no attention to him running up to him, and on top of that it is just a stupid preseason game.

  • I play Footie and grew up playing American football. I never have hit nor been hit harder then when I was wearing pads. I tended to hit harder in American football because i was protected. In Australian Rule, Footie, I and a lot of people that play are more cautious and tackle more affectively instead of crushing someone. Sav is a beast and that was a legal hit except for the helmet to helmet. A punt is like an interception. If you are trying to make a play you are considered fair game.

  • cheap shot there. 15 yard penalty unnecessary roughness - leading with the helmet... call it up

  • im aussie and im hear to say what a cunt go sav

  • Dog! Like someone said, ROCCA has been hit harder than that in no padding.

  • what a pathetic dirty hit.

  • Sav Rocca was one of the best AFL players I've seen for some time... whether it be for Collingwood or North Melbourne.

    I've seen Sav been hit harder than that... without any padding. That was the cheapest shot ever by a human being.

  • ive seen him take worse hits than that and they were without all the padding

  • That's the thing with NFL hits. They look grand, and technically they might have more what in science we call 'force'.

    But they're not as hard when you look at it realistically. Because at the end of the day the hits don't hurt much. The injury rates in NFL are quite low considering.

  • HAHA he deserves it, he was the shittest player back in AFL. Man what a great hit.

  • That hit cost 13 grand, he hit a rookie who played 15 seasons in the AFL for North Melbourne, the man is harder than a coffin nail, and he didn't feel a thing. What a waste of time. BTW i love the game, but all that padding is a little soft. GO COWBOYS (I know I just defended an Eagles player)

  • what they dont know is that Sav laughed about the hit, and said, if thats as hard as they can hit in the NFL, ill be just fine...hes a GOD!

  • I heard a radio interview and they asked him about it...he said with all the padding he didn't feel the hit, and the worst part of it was landing arse-first on the hard ground lol.

  • let me tell u thats as cheap as you can get but that was a big ass hit

  • YEH BOY !

  • Thats why he got fined 13,000 dollars for the hit.

  • Leave to contact to you...hah, at least when we get hit it's actually flesh and bone been hit, not plastic like u guys do,the reason u only get our kickers is because y play a sport that involves wearing to much padding and even a cup to protect is takeaway it been called a contact sport.

  • Are you talking about RL OR RU? Dont compare toughness in AFL to RL or RU.Your toughest player in AFL would get pole axed if he tried to play RL or RU.Personally, if i found u at the bottom of a maul i would ruck the shit out of you & piledrive u into the ground, which is perfectly legal in RU.

  • Aussies or what we like to call them pussies here in OZ are all a bunch of fags.Trying to compare GAYFL to NFL is like comparing High jump to MMA. Aussies will never be more than just punters.They cant do it like us samoans who actually play in the o & d line & have more than 200 players playing div 1 college football.Aussies, stick to FAG BALL & jump on top of ppl like ur dry humping & leave the contact sports to us.

  • mate your just an overweight fat f*ck with no natural ball skills what so ever

  • Yeah, i guess thats why we dominate RU,RL & the first draft pick in the AFL this year is an islander,nicholas naituni.Its allright fagboy,go play cricket with the currymunchers & leave the contact sports to us REAL MEN.

  • jack watts is pick one u fuck face naituni that ugly fuck head is 3 now coz he is a hack

  • oi mate go put some more fuckin padding on, if u can fit any.

  • Your boy Sav is going to get decked like the pussy aussie he is.Just go watch your GAYFL & rape your children u little kiddy fiddler.

  • ur sport isnt even contact no part of YOUR body makes and contact with someone else its the pads the plastic the helmets the cups all that faggy shit u were and btw were good at punters because the sport we play here is heavily involed with kicking if we wanted more players playing nfl we would have that as our national sport but because were so fucking talented it spills over onto ur shit sport and oh yea specail team of the month player SAV ROCCA so go fuck you self

  • Our Sport has got twice the athletes as anything you offer down under. Rugby is tough, however, no one in rugby is running near the speed, that even our NFL's linebackers run. The reason for the pads is for the longevity of ones playing career.

  • You have different types of athletes though. You've got guys whose entire career is just to run as fast as they can and try catch a ball thrown to them so obviously they'll be slightly smaller but a lot quicker, then players whose job is to stand in front of the quarterback and shield him so they'll be slower but considerably bigger. Rugby and even AFL find more of a middle ground between the 2

  • yea right dick head. some players can run the 100m in 10 seconds and then run 15km plus per game. not run for 3 seconds and then have a 2 minute break.

  • Well, if im the dickhead then I will again support the fact that NFL stars are better athletes than rugby players. NFL players are ALL better conditioned than rugby down under athletes. Look at their workouts, NFL players are bench pressing 500lbs, squatting even more, running faster dashes, jumping higher, all while doing more sophisticated blocking. If they werent better athletes then why are trainers from around the world coming to the United States to emulate their workout regimes?

  • Trainers come around the world to ever country looking for techniques. If they want to learn how to be a cheeseburger eating fat fuck then they come to the NFL. You obviously have done no research.

  • AFL and NRL players do much more cardio exercise than in the NFL. They have to be strong fast and run all day where as in the NFL they only need to bed strong and fast in short patches. Id like to see a player that can bench 500lbs run 16km in a game. If you get to big in AFL or NRL you are useless after 10 minutes of running and its game over. P.S. australian footballers DO have better vertical leaps. I watch the NFL and am amazed how they can even cacth a ball. Pathetic

  • @act0707 except NFL players have beer guts... yeah they're conditioned.

    I have really big muscles and everyone is afraid of me...

  • Yes, I'm certain the NFL will realize how sissified, according to certain people, their sport is, and have men run into each other without padding at full speed; all the while paying injured players millions to look pretty. But hey! At least they won't look like pussies by wearing padding! And lets not forget that AFL is only vaguely similar to NFL, and that its been proven that NFL players are generally stronger and faster. But who cares!? Ensuring longevity of athletes is a punk move.

  • i agree with billdawg0003 u call ur stupid game football afl and soccer are the only games u can call football in nfl the only time u use ur boot is to kick a goal!!! u never use to pass or anything and nfl players would not even make the state reserves of our afl league

  • seriously the padding sucks, be men and play without it

  • i play both sports football and rugby and i can tell you football hits are alot bigger and harder beacause they can put all their momnetum ino a hit because of the padding

  • Like the one that's about to be the most powerful man in the world? Please point out the ways in which you are superior to him. Your insecurities are the only thing big about you.
