well, it seems alot of people seem to have alot of different opinions. well, your all right, but i have to put down the fact that AFL is not full of overweight people... damn!! have you actually seen an afl match??? were talking Australian Football, not NFL. no offence, but they do seem a bit over weight some of them, not the whole team - just those who protect the thrower guy haha.
AFL players are, i can say, alot more fit than those who play soccer. SO STOP SAYING THEIR OVERWEIGHT AND FAT!!! cos they are not! they are tankz! if you know what that means, then you will understand when you see a real AFL player, not NFL....
soccer as a kids sport, well, the media in australia say it is. not many adults play professional soccer in australia, and not many people watch it. you go to an AFL game, there are about 40-70 thousand spectators, go to an australian soccer match - national, not international - and they bearly make the numbers past 40 thousand, if that.
thats the same with NRL, National Rugby. they struggle to get crowds at season games, except the games like the finals and State of Origin.... damn, i still cant get over the fact you sed afl players are fat and unfit!!! far out!!!
here, i will do a search for you.. i will find some afl players, and show you that they are not overweight and that they are fit!!!! i bet you, DJ Serg, couldnt keep this up for 120 minutes!!!

oh yea, and by the way, since you know nothing about AFL, you should check out their home pages, or search google to get some insight!!!
www.afl.com.au
no game is a "kids game", except those specifically aimed at them.
i hope all those who have been given the wrong impression on AFl that they are fat, can change your minds.......
DAMN!!!
