Jordan Posted 24 June 2017 Posted 24 June 2017 Watching the Bulldogs vs North right now. Aussie Rules kicks ass.
Jordan Posted 8 July 2017 Posted 8 July 2017 They're having the stupidest season. But despite losing heartbreakers and getting absolutely pasted, they're still in the top 8, which is more than I can say about a certain other team... :/

It seems a bit arbitrary. When I first saw a bit of Aussie rules I thought broken field running a la NRL would be a major part of it but there's pretty minimal amounts of taking people on with the ball. 10 metres, then they must either bounce or touch the ball on the floor or dispose of the ball.
Jordan Posted 8 July 2017 Posted 8 July 2017 It's 15m in the rules, but the umps give quite a bit of leeway so it's practically 20. It's rare to see anyone get pinged for running too far (to me, anyway). It also seems like they're also willing give more leeway to the players on marking, "paying" marks on kicks that don't look like they travel the entire 15m.
