I guess you mean Aussie Rules. We get only AFL highlights here, and the Footy Show, which is crap.

I was just wondering if Australians who know Union care about the Lions tour.

Hey, congrats on 1000! You're about the most casual person I've seen on reaching the number. You're supposed to start a congratulatory topic and everything... ;) :D

I'm always confusing Union with League, and I catch hell from both camps for it.

Woah man, it's like you don't even watch tv (I'm not giving you hell for it though).

I don't watch much TV, but you're overlooking the fact that Canberra isn't as Rugby-crazy as the land of the long white cloud. Other parts of Australia are, particularly up north, but here we've got a roughly 50/50 split of Rugby and Aussie Rules fans (League probably being the more prevalent of the Rugby codes, but as mentioned earlier, I have trouble discerning between them). We probably don't get bombarded with it as much as you do.

QLD is mad about Rugby, which is understandable since they only have one AFL team in the state. I'm going up there later on this year (September) and might tag along to a Rugby match just for the sake of it.

If up north is rugby crazy, I wonder why they didn't bid for a Super 14 team.

Oh, how much does the top AFL player get paid? Just to compare to league and Union.

So close yet so far. Iguess 16 posts won't EVER get me ranked in the top ten.

Someone should grade on length of posts (get rid of those silly one-liners) or intelligence (whoops, gets rid of me - better re-think this)

Maybe a look at the Code of Conduct would be helpful, fatman?

—Alorael, who highly recommends it. The least one can do to demonstrate one's moderatorial competence is obey the rules of the forum one intends to moderate.

At least for candidates. Once appointed, the rules become more what you'd call guidelines. :P

Population might be the answer. Doesn't QLD have a Super 12/14 team anyway, though?

Not sure exactly how much AFL players get paid. For the superstars, probably something around $800,000 a year.

And Spring, you have your cause and effect mixed up. They don't follow Rugby because they have no footy, they have no footy because they follow Rugby. AFL is generally disdainfully referred to as 'aerial ping-pong' up there.

This is exactly the kind of rutheless opression of our democratic freedoms against which EVOL party is fighting. This sort of blatant disregard for our civil rights can not go unpunished! Here is how EVOL is planning to stop these abuses of power from continuing in the future:

We will protect the members from excesses of non-EVOL moderators by locking them away in a small cellar with a lifetime supply of scribbane.

There will be no dominant force in our perfect society. Everybody will have all the democratic rights and freedoms sacredly enshrined in our constitution. Every member will be equal, with no discrimination based on age, position, connections, or number of tentacles. Anybody who attempts to infringe upon the rights of another member will be sent to a "treatment program" described in one of my other posts.

Basically, you're going to create your own oppressive regime and hope that by the time anyone notices, it'll be too late? ;)

There is absolutely nothing oppressive about the system that we are promoting. In fact, that system would be the purest form of society based on the principles of freedom, democracy and equality. It would remove all forms of intimidation and oppression. There would be no bullying, no flaming, no abuse of power. Everybody would live together in perfect harmony.

The harmony would be so perfect that even banning and topic locking would become unnecessary and could be safely abolished. Here are some examples from our party platform:

We will completely abolish the outdated and morally bankrupt practice of banning and replace it with the more humane punishment of sending a hit man to break offender's fingers.

We will abolish the practice of locking topics, which is one of the greatest offences against our god-given right of free speech. Instead, we will introduce newly modified auto-censor, which will prevent members from posting anything that could be deemed offensive by any other member.

I didn't know that QLD qualified as up north, sorry.

800k! Woah! The top All Blacks get ~500k from all competitions. Man, is AFL the way to go or what! AFL must have a good salary to population-who-play-the-game ratio.
