    New players for a team. How does that work?

    This information helps a lot. Thanks first of all for answering. So it means that a young player can’t choose the club where he wants to play it’s always the club who chooses the player. So different to soccer in Europe where it’s the other way around and what makes that in the end the best...

    The sport has a new fan from Holland

    First time to see the game from my home. Enjoyed the Geelong-Collingwood match. It felt to me that this game was a much higher level than Fremantle - Western Bulldogs. But with only 3 games seen in total i’m no expert 😂😂

    I don’t think it differs that much. Two things that i see different is that there is more singing from fans during soccer. Especially in England. Where as during afl games you sit next to a fan of your opponent. That would not be possible with european soccer in most games.

    I am a real sportsfan. Started from european soccer, but love cycling, formula 1, olympic games, nba basketball etc. I have seen a lot of live, including the worldcup soccer final in Africa in 2010 between Spain and my country. But I will remember the game of yesterday for the rest of my live...

    Great rules. I was looking for the top teams but saw, different from soccer in Europe, that there were a lot of different winners. We could learn from that, but unfortunately the big money rules

    Thanks for the explanation. I missed the bye during the season. I like the way the final rounds are set up with the easier road to the final for the first 4.

    Luckily. That’s better. After the lost game against Melbourne I couldnt see any disappointment from the fremantle supporters. It looks like they have enjoyed the evening and didn’t bother about the loss. Is that the normal reaction you see at other clubs as well. Just asking, as I am not used to...
