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...

Seems like an awesome sport.

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.

1:45, he could throw the ball if he wanted to but the AFL instinct is too strong :P

Hey Dong,

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.

@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

[MrCormac7777]

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.

@bones111987 .........did you not see the score?

[killdog95]

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.
