aussie rules footy (afl) (1 Viewer)

Love Aussie Rules
we watched it a ton in college bc it seemed to come on regularly
aside from the outstanding physical play, our favorite was the referees in their cute outfits shooting out 2 fingers bc the guy kicked it through the tall middle poles and not the side shorter pole
 
I'm a Hawthorn fan. My grandfather played for the team in the 1930s and 1940s (when they weren't good at all - he was something of an Archie Manning figure during those early years). More recent times have been very kind to Hawthorn fans though with 13 premierships since 1961 including four since 2008. I tend to go to all our games in Victoria and a couple of road trips annually too. Hard to separate the Hawks and the Saints as my #1 sporting love - probably the Hawks just - but the good thing is there is minimal overlap between the AFL and NFL season.

I kitted up @OutlawSaint and his buddy in Hawthorn baseball caps in Atlanta prior to the TNF game against the Falcons in November too. Gotta spread the fandom.
that is so forking awesome.

i've been to a few hawks games, i know one was playing essedon, good fans (not the bombers ones lol).

I will now root for the Zeetes-28 Magpies since they are also murder birds...

magpies, the birds, are forking butt crevasses.

the males will 'swoop' at you with their beak if anywhere near one of the nests.

Luckily, I didn't run into one when there... the closest I got to death was coming face to face w/ 2 barracudas whilst snorkling off the great barrier reef, they smiled at me and all I saw were their teefs and I noped hell outta there...

magpies, though only aggressive protecting their area, and koalas, who are always high as fork off of eucalyptus, making sure their area is secure.
 
for forks afl sake, this is about footy.

Well, TBH, I associate you and footy w/ you stubbing your foot during one of your nightly adventures with having a libation or deuce...

Lerv ya breaux...
 
I am Face book friends with an old Australian rules footballer. He's a hoot. Len Clark. Played for Collingwood late '60s-early '70s. He always tells me I should watch.
 
Plus "Oz" in New Orleans is something else entirely.
