    IC2011 Format

    The conversation's gotten a bit confused in this thread. The suggestion of Australian states competing was only in relation to the women's division. I reckon you could run a great contest between the women's rep sides of NSW, Queensland, USA, Canada and maybe Ireland or someone else from...

    European Championships

    The pool games have been played and won. On Saturday, Denmark will face off with Ireland for the gold medal. Playing for third are Great Britain and Sweden. Playing for fifth are Croatia and Iceland, who made their debuts in full-field test footy at this tournament, and came out of...

    European Championships

    The way it looks, this round also might have a few blowouts, although maybe not as extreme as the first set of four games. BUT, then round 3 on Thursday has Ireland vs Sweden and GB vs Denmark, which should be tighter match-ups, and will essentially be the semi finals. The playoffs, 4th vs...

    If he's who I'm guessing he is, he'll be in Scandinavia with the squad, but not on the playing list ;)

    Where to watch AFL in Waikiki

    Are you kidding? There are Aussie pubs in some pretty unlikely places, Hawaii doesn't seem that much of a stretch.

    New League in Shanghai

    Looks like a third local league in China (depending on whose definition of China you use ;) is on the cards. The Hong Kong Dragons, Macau Lightning and Pokfulam Vikings will play a triple-header this Saturday at Kai Tak Cricket Ground in Hong Kong... preview will be on WFN before the weekend.

    It is very important that the teams at the IC play against different opposition to usual. If there are 12 in first division and 12 in second, I propose SOMETHING like this - each division has four pools of three teams each. DIV 1 Pool A - New Zealand, USA, Denmark Pool B - PNG, Great...

    Nothing wrong with being a noob, you have to start somewhere! This I think will eventually happen, as in the soccer and rugby union world cups. However, at the moment I think the emphasis needs to be on inclusion - involving everyone, including the teams that are very much still in the...

    20,000 includes the footywild development kids - but you have to understand that when you're playing footy in the townships it's not really on a club basis. However, there actually is a list of clubs on the AFLSA website - for North West Province, the clubs/FootyWILD (similar to Auskick)...

    New League in Shanghai

    Hi Deloise - no, not directly connected with the BJ Bombers. I'm one of the writers at worldfootynews.com My annoyance wasn't directed at the Bombers or the Tigers - it was directed at the the newspaper for the way the article read :) Most Aussies don't have any clue that footy's being...

    New League in Shanghai

    The second article there annoyed me slightly, in that it made it sound like there hasn't been any footy in China until now. The Shanghai league is new. I'll be completely honest and say that's the first I've heard of it. The Shanghai Tigers have been around for a while, but I didn't know of...

    Unfortunately, I think Australian Ammos would still be too far ahead... NZ played against Maffra not all that long ago and got thumped by 200-odd points. We'll see what happens though.
