The only major problem with the way inter is structured is that nobody ever needs to try for 6-- so they don't. The keeper ends up not doing too much other than stopping the occasional behind.
I dont know what point u at tryin to make? Of course AFL players, who are professiona, are going to be fitter than ameuters. My point is that Gaelic is far more based on skill than AFL. I was at 3 AFL games when i was in Melbourne. Dey wer all 60 point trashings, by half time I wanted to go home I was so bored. D only exciting thing that happened last night was when Bernard Brogan smashed d ball to d back of d ozzie net. We didnt play well,but, tactics will b very different come sat.
D aussie are a bunch of meathead basketball players. Less so the players in d current ozzie panel. U even get a point in ozzie rules for kicking the ball wide. u can assault an opponent on the pitch & u wont even get a yellow card. D skill levels in gaelic are far higher, if u catch a ball in gaelic u dont get a mark, d crowd dont look on in amazement, u simply get on wit d game.
That long? Ch 4 in the UK showed lots of "exotic" sports in the 80s/90s AFL, Sumo, american football even kabaddi at one point. All were presented really well and all have a lot to offer. I liked the gridiron so much I played for 15+yrs. As a bigger kind of guy Aussie rules looked like too much running for me. Great to watch though.
Just remembered Darren Bennett who was an ex-AFL player who became a very good NFL punter over in the states for a decade and made a few big hits on returns as he was a big fella 6'5" or so. Was he a top AFLer or just OK? he had monster power in his kick.
As a Brit with no axe to grind, I think the idea of an annual hybrid sport is a great one. I would love to get across to croke park and see it. The fact that the overall record is tied suggest the balance of the rules is about right. We used to get AFL action on channel 4 in the UK years ago and I remember a fantastic player called Peter Daicos (how long ago am I talking about) but it has not been shown here for many years.
and btw ... running in straight lines and passing the ball 10 metres every time .... not to mention poor kicking skills.... any peanut with the brain the size of a tictac could play league..... Unlike AFL which requires numerous skills
WELL MUZZANATOR U STUPID WOG MUPPET..... AT AN AFL GRANDFINAL U GET 100 000 PEOPLE ... FUKN TOOL, likewise on anzac day. and good on ya ... tv ratings... u contradicted yaself... afl is only played in a small part of the world... as compared to a world game on a world network like FOX ... i think 36 as compared to 26 stacks up all right.
Rugby Leauge just had 81, 000 people at a Europeon Club final in London - It beats AFL hands down in the globel stakes, also smashes AFL in TV ratings - 26 of the top 100 FOX sports rated shows were NRL AFL first game came in at 36...AFL is a marginalized game that is played in a small part of a small country
i agree with one of the guys below........ireland has such more advantage with the ball shape and they know how to get them 6 pointers easier because thats in their sport....we only got the advantage by tackling and speed
The Irish have a much bigger advantage at this game, if the ball was shaped like an Aussie rules one, we would win easy since only a few select Irish men can kick our ball
1 its easier to kik a ball thats shaped lik a soccer ball an irish person wouldent touch a ball like that. an aussie could touch a soccer ball and do that. and aussies have wn the games before.
hey bigspin stop crying, its not our fault our team isn't made of butter you bunch of softies...here is an idea, yous play our game and see if yous can win will be hard seeings tho yous cant beat us at your own game. most peoplecall this soccer anyways
this is a stupid argument anyway. the irish drink, the aussis drink. both teams play good football either way and both teams complain about underhanded tactics and cheap shots. and just to clear up an earlier comment...a good portion of aussis have irish names and origins so keep bashing your origins you dumb fuck...
check this out: 90% of GAA(Irish) players who've converted to AFL(Australian) are kicking the ball (sherrin)around after a week like they were born with it....no wonder all the AFL are falling over each other for Irish talent. We are better at your game than you are! How does that feel besides being gene pool rejects?
Marcellin20, of course we have a sense of humour. It seems you hit a sore spot with a particularly sensitive guy. I'm sure he'll get over it with time. Talk about splitting fucking hairs. You're not a born again non smoker are you Oisin? If you are step in front of a moving truck
point system is different in gaa you have goals and points so ur score would be for eg 1-12 to 2-10 a goal being worth 3 points, also in gaa we play 2 35 min halves as opposed to quarters in international rules its goals overs and behinds all added together s results would show for eg 57 to 51
they're just some of the main differences there are different legal tackles aswel
please dont talk shit unless you know what I was exactly talking about. Your reply reminds me of how a crack addict would respond to a comment. I was talking about the game you idiot, not Irish politics.
you dont think calling an entire nation "plain dumb stupid" or lacking a sence of humour is smart? you slag off an entire nation of people from some you tube comments you saw
I don't think its smart...it just human nature to do so on you tube. I can call the Irish dumb if I want to whether someone likes it or not. Its an opinion on you tube.
yes you could call the irish dumb. but if the majority of australians originate from the dregs of ireland's society, what would that make the aussies?
so other peoples comments are "just plain stupid", but yours are just your opinion and human nature. Do you not think everyones comments are all human nature in that respect so?
No, its just human natures as in everyday people (not just myself) can disagree and ridicule others based on their opinion. I never said other peoples comments are stupid...just 'Oisinericjayats' and No, its plain stupid depending on what the other person has to say in response to yours. No I don't think its human nature to respect other peoples comments because its you tube.
You`re a racist - fact, Protestants where I`m from, have always played GAA - it was never an issue. You`re an attention seeking scumbag who is well able to vilify the association and "Paddyballers" yet you aren`t man enough to say where you`re from and what your background is - why is that I wonder............. because you`re a coward who will attack others identities while keeping your own hidden. A big mouth with no balls - end of!
You simply gave your twisted opinions and refer to them as facts! Funny how it`s when we`ve won the series we get ugly people like yourself spreading their ridiculous comments - The GAA helped Catholics who were being burnt out of their homes and gave them a sense of pride and purpose - there was a war going on, or did you miss it?
Did I call you Protestant you silly man? ..... you`re a cowardly rascist who won`t say what he is - I advise you not to talk about rocket science as it`s clearly something well out of your league.
Haha..... when you have an IQ of over 140 come back and talk you fool. If you`re a brainwashed Protestant that`s you`re problem. Me..... I couldn`t care less if someone was black, white, Hindu, Buddhist, Catholic or Protestant. It`s small minded hicks like yourself that give your own people a bad name lol - The vast majority of you are pretty sound.
I`ve never been forced to play either of them. Played Gealic football by choice and love hurling from the heart (I wish I had been taught to play hurling from an early age, as you must to become proficient with this highly skilled game). You`re a rascist idiot and a disgrace to your own people, plain and simple.
Well I`m sure if we had an army barracks in every second country around the world there would be "Paddyball" and "Stickfighting" heroes from all over. It`s a shame that soccer has such mass appeal as it is a completely inferior game to our native sports, especially hurling - the fastest and most skillful field sport on the planet.
Haha..... you are a twisted, bitter little shit alright - soccer will never come close to hurling or Gaelic football for class and skill either so keep dreaming.
What a bigoted idiot you are - I come from a part of Ireland where there are many Protestants - We all get on very well and some of the local Protestants play Gaelic football - never was an trouble. If you look for it you`ll get it - as you are intent on doing.
its gas how a bunch of amateurs go out for a holiday in Australia, mainly drinking, start playing a bit of Aussie rules for two weeks and then take on Australias best Professional players and beat them at every aspect of their own game. AUstralia are just shit nuff said. Proud Irish!
There is so much drivel in that comment I just couldn't be bothered addressing it all.
But you seem to be missing my point. In the Republic, your religion is, I would say completely irrelevant when it comes to playing GAA. If you read my comments, you will see that I said I know of many Protestants playing Gaelic, so it most definitely is not going against the grain. Your problem is that you cant accept that Protestants might not feel Unionist urgings.
And the aims of the founding fathers was to combat the growth of English games, to contribute to the process of the de-Anglicisation of Ireland. Once again you are calling English games "Protestant games" which is simply wrong.
FACTS!?!?! Nothing but a cut and paste from the same sad and pathetic loyalist thug hate sites, as if anyone take them or you seriously. And then you accuse others of bigotry and sectarianism!!!! Whats that kettle? Black is it!! You are a joke.
You sure are a smart chap. Conveniently ignore my comments to pursue your own sectarian agenda. Are you saying I'm not a self respecting Protestant? And why should a Protestant not support the GAA because of its links with Nationalism? Is it illegal for a Protestant to be a Nationalist? I'm a Protestant and a proud Nationalist. I presume you will ignore this comment too, but thats your problem and not mine.
I asked you twice whats your nationality and you have twice refused to say. Dont critisize another tribe when you are to chicken shit to say what tribe you come from.
You are very, very ignorant and misinformed. Perhaps these facts could help to clear up your stupidity.
1. Edward Carson, the greatest figure of Unionism, played Hurling.
2. Trinity College Dublin had the countrys first University Gaelic team at a time when only Protestants attended it.
3. Jack Boothman is widely recognised as one of the GAA's greatest ever Presidents after he held office during the 90's. Yes, you've guessed it! He was a Protestant.
There are no hard factual comments made by you. I claimed there were a few protestant kid playing gaelic football in south Derry and you replied with the most stupid and uneducated statement that a few out of a possible 30 to 40 thousand, well that said something. Let me remind you that South Derry is a vastly Nationalist/ Republican area.
4. And I have saved the very best for last. I am a Protestant and have played Gaelic Football since the age of seven. If this doesn't give me the right to tell you that you're a misinformed idiot then what does? I have never had even the slightest hint of Sectarianism directed towards me even though my religion is no secret. Whatsmore many of my Protestant cousins play GAA and they will tell you the same thing. Simply put, I am living evidence that you are wrong.
And what have you been posting for the past week??? I dont know what your physiological diagnosis is but you need yourself help. Otherwise, when you have nothing but mindless rants and rubbish to contribute, there is any number of pathetic loyalist thug websites where you'll be well received, and can all congratulate yourselves on your amazingly well thought-out and constructed arguments!!!!! Look up Willie Frazer.
Im not the one attacking muslims, i just said i dont like them. The armies of BRITAIN, America and Israel are the ones attacking muslims!! But I guess bapfontenin is a supporter of these armies. Bapfontein once again you have proved you know nothing bout the gaa or its history. Maybe you should go to an Ireland v Scotland international rules game. You were one earlier spouting that scotch protestants wouldnt touch gaa with a 40ft stick and yet here they are playing an international tournament
There are thousands of protestants playing gaelic games in the south. Sadly the vast majority of protestants living in the North seem to be living 300 years in the past and seem to have a hatred of anything irish.
I dont particularly like muslims but i dont hate them. In fact I am not even catholic. The Fact that i mentioned sam maguire was that the most famous cup in Irish sporting history was named after him. If modern day gaa fans were anti protestant, surley they would change the cup
I can only laugh at the pathetic paradox of a cultureless and landless planter using words such as sectarian, bigotry and anti-anything, while amazingly attacking another peoples culture and history. Sad, very sad.
Sam Maguire was a prod as you call it. There are loads of protestants playing gaelic football. The guy with the bleached hair that plays for dublin is a protestant. There are a few protestant kids playin for clubs in south derry. When I played gaelic for glasgow uni where we won the scottish sevens our goalkeeper was a massive ranges fan, in fact he often played with his rangers shorts on. I dont like muslims simple as that
spakman ur talking shite. For many gaa clubs protestants would be very welcome. Irish culture for every one on the island no matter what religon. (Except muslims)
Every year a selection of irish hurlers play a selection of Scotish shinty players(probably all scotch protestants) in a game of international rules. Could you please f off you sectarian bigot. In future before trying to get into a debate research what you are going to be discussing first. If you dont you will end up looking stupid and guess what? You look fucking stupid!!!
I think you will find there is more than one protestant playing gaelic games in the North. The guy you are refering to in Fermanagh is once again playin his beloved hurling.
Although it was wrong to target him, he wasnt targeted due to his religion it was due to his family links to the sectarian UDR. A state paramilitary group involved in the killings of innocent protestants and catholics.
As to being racist you refer to Gaelic football as Paddy Ball. Paddy is an interntional racist slag
explain to me how you can call anyone sad when you have spnt the past couple of days writing useless and pregadist marks about a counrtys loved sport, so please if you are to keep on making sly remarks on people culture please do it on your own country!
gaelic is not a sectarien sport you retard there are plenty of protestants that play...theres one on my team and there has never been a problem we just play the game....im thinkin ur just jealous cause you were never asked to play haha
The international rules was actually a concept of an Australian broadcaster called Harry Beitzel. He organized the first tour where the Aussies came to Ireland to play the County Meath Team. At least we have a culture and didnt run off to America to become Hill Billys
Bap dick head, still ashamed of were u come from, Im still waiting for a reply? Im ready to wipe the foor with you? No balls as well as no brains I see.
Bapfontein according to your profile your 42 and your on a you tube forum spining a bunch of left wing nonsense and arguing with a group of teenagers seriously grow up would you please. Lads ignore him what you see from bapfontein is someone trying to find something to fill his/her empty life and they choose to do that by coming on you tube and getting a reaction from people. Sad really. Well done Ireland great win,we look forward to next years rematch.
Go fuck yourself Bapfontein, it was the brits/proddy scots who tried to destroy the language, culture and civil rights of the MINORITY catholic population of the North,through tryanny and terrorism, but it backfired! just cause youve no culture of your own i suggest you go back to whatever shithole anus you crawled out of and dont be bringin your redneck uneducated views to this sport you little pussy
Go fuck yourself Bapfontein, it was the brits/proddy scots who tried to destroy the language, culture and civil rights of the MINORITY catholic population of the North,through tryanny and terrorism, but it backfired! just cause youve no culture of your own i suggest you go back to whatever shithole anus you crawled out of and dont be bringin your redneck uneducated views to this sport you little pussy
bapfontein, your profile states you are british. And you are telling us that our flea ridden ancestors helped exterminate many races. And the british?how many countries have they invaded,fucked up. It was the british who exterminated most aborigines you fucking idiot. And if you are an aussie working and living in britain then it makes your opinion even more contradictory
Bapfontein you nob, are you either Aussie or Irish? if not shut the fuck up. I imagine you have never played any of either games so your opinion means nothing. Why do u comment? you wouldnt understand what the GAA is all about and in an effort to educate you regarding international rules, 15 Irish wins vs 14 Australian wins and 2 draws, thats competition.
there was only one soft goal scored by ireland wen the keeper just stood there which was fuckin funny lookin the other goals you had no chance of savin and that was in the second series....and then the aussies got the most half assed goal ive ever seen i think one of them fell on the ball and it bounced in
bapfontein...great auld rant there about parasites etc...Jasus who pissed in your cornflakes..did the wife/husband run off with your bank manager or something!!!!
cheating is when you play outside the rules of the agme to your advantage> as in assaulting the irish players on the pitch like yous did in the previous 2 tests. glad we didnt paly last year, and have shown we will not stoop to those levels. Great series this year, pleyed in a good SPORTING manner, fair play to the australians also, gracious in defeat. The better side won.
speakerbox1987 this game is far more gaelic than AFL. I bet if it were played with an AFL ball the Aussies would dominate. They should change the rules so it's Aussie rules ball in Australia and Gaelic ball in Ireland. + Just cause our players get paid doesn't make them more proffesional, your gaelic players train for more than half a year, it's not like they wouldn't be proffesionals either.
u tell me how so? And the EvilAussie are u stupid? There is a big difference, ye are getting paid to train every day of the football season and its wot yer players do for a living unlike many of the Irish players who have other professions i.e. bankers, lawyers, teachers, plumbers by day and train in the evenings. The Irish dont get paid or dont train as intensively as the Aussies which explains the point why they are not professional!
....Great performance by S Cavanagh and Donaghy...i am looking forward to Friday morning...although I must say it is a poor game overall....also it is well recognised it is much easier kick an oval ball once you get the initial hang of it...
wats up wi all d hate to each other... we both av sports that both countries r very proud of.. anyways i tout ireland did us proud.. dey played der hearts out ireland av the skill on the ball bt the aussies av the physical pressence... altho there skilled too... i was thinkin tho... why cant ireland bring in a good rugby player.. im sure der loads of rugby players that are also very good at gaelic... jus an idea... it might help our tackles a little
If Ireland can get better ball ito our forwards we can do the aussies real damage. Problem is the Aussies swamp the midfield and half back line. I hope Tohill and Boylan find away round this
Great game! The aussie boys were unreal in the tackle and especially avoiding it aswell. Irelands handling of the ball wasnt good at times and there should be no excuse for this. We also need to move the ball faster to avoid those aussie tackle. ALSO we need to hit more overs. Cant wait for second game!!
Seems like an awesome sport.

@MrCormac7777 i'll have you know,
australians play afl all year and half of them have never even played gaelic football
it's a whole new ball game to them
i know gaelic football is a very tough game to play and it involves much strength,
but the field is 175 metres long and 122 metres wide and it involves a ridiculous amount of speed.
and may i ask how big is a gaelic footy field?
you can't bloody bag out a sport if you don't know what it takes to play it
get over yourself
DONGJIN95 1 year ago
Both Gaelic football and AFL demand skill to play. Both are also great games. The main difference is one demands more speed the other more strength.
Although they are highly skillful games, more skill/practice is required in hurling.

they're just some of the main differences there are different legal tackles aswel

I don't think its smart...it just human nature to do so on you tube. I can call the Irish dumb if I want to whether someone likes it or not. Its an opinion on you tube.

No, its just human natures as in everyday people (not just myself) can disagree and ridicule others based on their opinion. I never said other peoples comments are stupid...just 'Oisinericjayats' and No, its plain stupid depending on what the other person has to say in response to yours. No I don't think its human nature to respect other peoples comments because its you tube.

You`re a racist - fact, Protestants where I`m from, have always played GAA - it was never an issue. You`re an attention seeking scumbag who is well able to vilify the association and "Paddyballers" yet you aren`t man enough to say where you`re from and what your background is - why is that I wonder............. because you`re a coward who will attack others identities while keeping your own hidden. A big mouth with no balls - end of!

You simply gave your twisted opinions and refer to them as facts! Funny how it`s when we`ve won the series we get ugly people like yourself spreading their ridiculous comments - The GAA helped Catholics who were being burnt out of their homes and gave them a sense of pride and purpose - there was a war going on, or did you miss it?

I`ve never been forced to play either of them. Played Gealic football by choice and love hurling from the heart (I wish I had been taught to play hurling from an early age, as you must to become proficient with this highly skilled game). You`re a rascist idiot and a disgrace to your own people, plain and simple.
orbandsceptre27 3 years ago
Well I`m sure if we had an army barracks in every second country around the world there would be "Paddyball" and "Stickfighting" heroes from all over. It`s a shame that soccer has such mass appeal as it is a completely inferior game to our native sports, especially hurling - the fastest and most skillful field sport on the planet.
orbandsceptre27 3 years ago
Haha..... you are a twisted, bitter little shit alright - soccer will never come close to hurling or Gaelic football for class and skill either so keep dreaming.
orbandsceptre27 3 years ago
What a bigoted idiot you are - I come from a part of Ireland where there are many Protestants - We all get on very well and some of the local Protestants play Gaelic football - never was an trouble. If you look for it you`ll get it - as you are intent on doing.

There is so much drivel in that comment I just couldn't be bothered addressing it all.
But you seem to be missing my point. In the Republic, your religion is, I would say completely irrelevant when it comes to playing GAA. If you read my comments, you will see that I said I know of many Protestants playing Gaelic, so it most definitely is not going against the grain. Your problem is that you cant accept that Protestants might not feel Unionist urgings.
Thunderfinger2 3 years ago
And the aims of the founding fathers was to combat the growth of English games, to contribute to the process of the de-Anglicisation of Ireland. Once again you are calling English games "Protestant games" which is simply wrong.

You sure are a smart chap. Conveniently ignore my comments to pursue your own sectarian agenda. Are you saying I'm not a self respecting Protestant? And why should a Protestant not support the GAA because of its links with Nationalism? Is it illegal for a Protestant to be a Nationalist? I'm a Protestant and a proud Nationalist. I presume you will ignore this comment too, but thats your problem and not mine.

You are very, very ignorant and misinformed. Perhaps these facts could help to clear up your stupidity.
1. Edward Carson, the greatest figure of Unionism, played Hurling.
2. Trinity College Dublin had the countrys first University Gaelic team at a time when only Protestants attended it.
3. Jack Boothman is widely recognised as one of the GAA's greatest ever Presidents after he held office during the 90's. Yes, you've guessed it! He was a Protestant.
Thunderfinger2 3 years ago
There are no hard factual comments made by you. I claimed there were a few protestant kid playing gaelic football in south Derry and you replied with the most stupid and uneducated statement that a few out of a possible 30 to 40 thousand, well that said something. Let me remind you that South Derry is a vastly Nationalist/ Republican area.

4. And I have saved the very best for last. I am a Protestant and have played Gaelic Football since the age of seven. If this doesn't give me the right to tell you that you're a misinformed idiot then what does? I have never had even the slightest hint of Sectarianism directed towards me even though my religion is no secret. Whatsmore many of my Protestant cousins play GAA and they will tell you the same thing. Simply put, I am living evidence that you are wrong.

Bapfontein once again you have proved you know nothing bout the gaa or its history. Maybe you should go to an Ireland v Scotland international rules game. You were one earlier spouting that scotch protestants wouldnt touch gaa with a 40ft stick and yet here they are playing an international tournament

hill16lala 3 years ago
There are thousands of protestants playing gaelic games in the south. Sadly the vast majority of protestants living in the North seem to be living 300 years in the past and seem to have a hatred of anything irish.
I dont particularly like muslims but i dont hate them. In fact I am not even catholic. The Fact that i mentioned sam maguire was that the most famous cup in Irish sporting history was named after him. If modern day gaa fans were anti protestant, surley they would change the cup
tullyrowan 3 years ago
I can only laugh at the pathetic paradox of a cultureless and landless planter using words such as sectarian, bigotry and anti-anything, while amazingly attacking another peoples culture and history. Sad, very sad.
itsmichaeljohn 3 years ago
Sam Maguire was a prod as you call it. There are loads of protestants playing gaelic football. The guy with the bleached hair that plays for dublin is a protestant. There are a few protestant kids playin for clubs in south derry. When I played gaelic for glasgow uni where we won the scottish sevens our goalkeeper was a massive ranges fan, in fact he often played with his rangers shorts on. I dont like muslims simple as that

Every year a selection of irish hurlers play a selection of Scotish shinty players(probably all scotch protestants) in a game of international rules. Could you please f off you sectarian bigot. In future before trying to get into a debate research what you are going to be discussing first. If you dont you will end up looking stupid and guess what? You look fucking stupid!!!
tullyrowan 3 years ago
And by the way I hope you are pointing out as well the sectarian nature of the orange order and the Irish football association
tullyrowan 3 years ago
I think you will find there is more than one protestant playing gaelic games in the North. The guy you are refering to in Fermanagh is once again playin his beloved hurling.
Although it was wrong to target him, he wasnt targeted due to his religion it was due to his family links to the sectarian UDR. A state paramilitary group involved in the killings of innocent protestants and catholics.
As to being racist you refer to Gaelic football as Paddy Ball. Paddy is an interntional racist slag

The international rules was actually a concept of an Australian broadcaster called Harry Beitzel. He organized the first tour where the Aussies came to Ireland to play the County Meath Team. At least we have a culture and didnt run off to America to become Hill Billys

speakerbox1987 this game is far more gaelic than AFL. I bet if it were played with an AFL ball the Aussies would dominate. They should change the rules so it's Aussie rules ball in Australia and Gaelic ball in Ireland. + Just cause our players get paid doesn't make them more proffesional, your gaelic players train for more than half a year, it's not like they wouldn't be proffesionals either.
TheEvilAussie 3 years ago
u tell me how so? And the EvilAussie are u stupid? There is a big difference, ye are getting paid to train every day of the football season and its wot yer players do for a living unlike many of the Irish players who have other professions i.e. bankers, lawyers, teachers, plumbers by day and train in the evenings. The Irish dont get paid or dont train as intensively as the Aussies which explains the point why they are not professional!

If Ireland can get better ball ito our forwards we can do the aussies real damage. Problem is the Aussies swamp the midfield and half back line. I hope Tohill and Boylan find away round this

Great game! The aussie boys were unreal in the tackle and especially avoiding it aswell. Irelands handling of the ball wasnt good at times and there should be no excuse for this.
