In the AFL that would constitute bringing the game in to disrepute.

I can't believe a game with a world body as powerful as it is could sit back and condone such behaviour on the world stage. If it does then that game is a farce.

Players get kicked all the time. Being kicked equates to a foul. If you don't go down you don't get paid said foul. The players have no choice.

You mean cheating is a choice?

It's not cheating I told you already, the foul is there more often than not.

You're just rambling nonsense LP.

Boxing and UFC fans would laugh at Aussie rules players dropping to the turf from love taps.

More often than not!

Like hurdling an opponents leg and rolling on the ground in agony, at least once a game.

Falling down and rolling a few dozen times almost right off the pitch after the slightest brush!

Tripping over your own feet and falling to the ground behind play holding your face.

Having a sub run on the ground and stop a goal!

Until they get fair dinkum about cases like this and ban players for years or life they are a joke, a massive joke that any sane person cannot take seriously! The trivial staging that is happening in AFL is under more scrutiny that the blatant lying that forms part of soccer.

Yeah right there is a valid comparison, comparing any other sport to blood sports. Actually you are right, comparing UFC and AFL is probably as relative as AFL is to Soccer. And that is being kind to soccer, that Vertonghen event looks more like ballet or opera than sport.

I m sure aussie rule players would laugh at boxing and efc ball skills too - hardly a comparison

Having a sub stop a goal???

Really?

Did that even happen?  Scattergun approach.

FWIW the AFL's credibility took a real hit over this drugs event and the whole competition looks like a complete farce particularly when you view the inequality in salary caps and flimsy excuses for it.

Some Junior Aussie rules football leagues no longer keep score so they don't hurt the children's feelings.
