Australian football is the same as Rugby? if so, it's a fuckin wacked out game. As best as I can figure, it's a psychotic game of "Kill the man with the ball" and american football.
You have an egg shaped ball that you take possession of after a skirmish that consists of the two teams piling onto each other and pushing the other team as far as they can. Once a team gets possession, they hand off to someone who runs with it. You can lateral the ball back to someone else who can run with it. The object is to get it in the endzone but the catch is you have kick the ball between two uprights to score.
No pads, no helmets and these guys seriously do beat the shit out of each other on the field. After the game they get together for a beer, talk about the game and offer their wives and girlfriends to each other.
Fuckin aussies, ya got to love them.
