Aussie Rules Football
January 16, 2007
Aussie rules football has been played for over 100 years at various levels throughout Australia. It has been well documented that the game, which is a mixture of Soccer, Gaelic Football and Rugby, was created to keep cricketers fit during winter. The first official game of football was played in the parklands of Melbourne in the late1850’s and has blossomed into a multi million dollar business which appeals to many people throughout the world. Obviously the game has changed considerably over the last hundred years and there would be wide spread debate as to whether all the changes have been for the better.
