I live in the heart of AFL land, the AFL capital of Australia that is the world's most overrated city. I don't particularly like AFL but I love the way it is administered and run. Doesn't change the fact though that the product just isn't that good, unless you like games played during recess at school.

Nope tried watching it a few times but never got into it.
The reason why I dislike it isn't because of the game it's because of the people who watch it. Very insular towards other sports and they go on about it non stop. When I've met some people from Victoria they asked me about Aussie rules and when I told them I wasn't interested in it and that I'm a Rugby man they told me Rugby was shit when they knew nothing about it at all.
Commentators on the BBL as well bring it up non stop as well which adds to it. Would hate commentary if Fleming, Brayshaw, Warne, Morphett etc were the ones in the box all summer.

I used to play first grade in Brisbane in the 80s for the mighty Kedron red legs. Was an awesome game to play, I guess it suited my skill set. I coach an U 12 team now. Would still rather watch league. Would have watched ply a handful of AFL games since I retired.
