  • @jacobmccombie ... polynesian so they're pretty rough and ready to tackle guys but the mens team was 90% polynesian too and went from 170 pounds to 300 or so so the ladies couldn't do much. it's a great game really.  Crazy that you guys who invented it hardly get to play after 18.

  • @jacobmccombie Na, never got the chance. Played a practise game but it was without the pads and helmets and it was our mens team vs our womens team ( we don't have enough extras to go mens vs themselves. it was hilarious - i asked if i could play for the girls because i was uncomfortable tackling ladies (guess i'm old fashioned) so i spent the whole time trying to make massive hits on guys before they ran through all the female defenders. I liked it. Out here the ladies teams are all...

  • @TheNZNick Wow, yeah that is crazy, maybe my area just gets screwed then. It has never really been mainstream if it is available. So then you have never played an official game?

  • @jacobmccombie What's really funny is that we have recreational American football league here in Auckland, New Zealand. There are about 6 teams and it has been going for a decade or so now. Mostly all rugby league or union players looking for something different or extra fitness training. I trained with a team for a few weeks and really liked it but was working Saturdays no never got to play a proper game. USA not having any when even NZ has it is kind of crazy.

  • @TheNZNick Yeah, no problem. I wish there were recreational leagues like you mentioned for Rugby, but I believe that the equipment costs really hinder that idea.

  • @jacobmccombie And thanks for the reply - i always wondered about that.

  • @jacobmccombie Man, that's a heavy price to pay for a sport. Rugby (rugby union) is cheaper on gear, requires less people (15 is a full team, reserves often not needed) and probably has less injuries too so we get to keep playing right up until masters games of 40-50 years old still going hard at it.

  • ok! try this again!

    Nice playing #2 lol

    good job in stuff >.< walnut199 ~ImVu~

  • @TheNZNick There are no full contact recreational leagues. For many people, after high school they will never play football again.

  • When the kids have their last high school football game in American movies the coach always says that except for the few who will be college players this will be tyhe last time they ever strap on their helmets. Is that true? In America how many people outside of school / college / pro league play American football? Are their social leagues and is it widely played or after 18 is it only college and pro players that actually get to play the game.
