AFLX

[Contested Marx]

Play it on a rhomboid field, have the goals in 3 corners, field 3 teams, make the posts touch at the top and put a net across the middle of the ground

Change the out of bounds rule to mean last touch loses a player from the ground and make all fullbacks wear cricket pads

Players get letters not numbers and the ball is an actual piglet

Umpires are to adjudicate suspended from a highwire over the central net

Extra points for knocking them off

I was hoping it would have 1 umpire only, there's too much confusion with different interpretations but particularly with an umpire from 50 metres away overruling the other.

This just screams out "I'm the ugly girl at school who everyone hates but I'm gonna show some tit and short skirt and maybe someone will like me"

*is way to old for skool* afl trying to hard.

 

[badbeats]

wait till the AFL bring in a sign strung between the goal posts and if you hit it you get 1 million dollars....

Just another gimmick that won't last.

I don’t want to start debating or moralising about it but I’m sure our (few) female posters and lurkers would appreciate it. Besides there are plenty of other websites available where you can perve on butts.

Are you seriously debating this? You should unAmericanize yourself a bit. It would be good for your health, mate. Relax!

 

[badbeats]

AFLX is that bad we should close this thread.

Totally, but all is forgiven!

Smile! Brazil is the Empire of Small Pleasures. I wasn't being serious.

No. I’m not. I explicitly said that. Brazil may have beautiful women but apparently no optometrists.

No optometrists. Lobby by the MD Union. Not kidding...

P.S.: We are totally having a cultural clash. It happens, and can be as amuzing as maddening. It is nothing that can't be fixed, though. Still, on this subject, I will refrain replying as a Brazilian (i.e., I won't talk about it again!). We can catch on later on another issue.

Yet another of Mr McMahon's genius ideas. Has to be right up there with the Kiss My Ass club.

We are not clashing so there is nothing to fix. I made a suggestion in the interests of respect and relevance. You are at liberty disagree with and ignore it Gremlin.

Well, I've said I wouldn't reply and I probably should keep my word, but even knowing the risks, here I go...


I didn't disagree with your comment, but you still can't realize what I was doing. Well, I thought your point on your own hypocrisy to be a very good self-mocking joke. I was wrong.

We are used to distinct social codes. Sometimes, this leads to misunderstandings. That's all.

I could be just spitballing here, but wouldn't it be wise to respect the culture or code of the location/country that a forum may be based in, regardless of what you feel people from your country would do in a given situation?

Rule one of travelling, really.

Mocking myself is one of my favourite things to do but I actually was being hypocritical so I apologise if Speedo Majak made you self-conscious of your caipirinha belly.

Fin.

 

[DaTBird187]

Carn do we really need the tenuously-related girls wrestling in lingerie pics ITT and yes it was me who posted Speedo Majak the other day I’m aware of my hypocrisy.

Absolutely we do. The name AFLX conjures up about as much seriousness as the NFL Lingerie league.

I hope our club treats it with utter disdain.

A good point you’ve just made without the picture. Look I’m not the burlyburley police, it was just a suggestion. If it’s inappropriate then it’s mod fodder. I’m out.

AFLX datz cray cray will it have multiball?

 

[chiwigi]

I’ve just had a horrible though, Collingwood aside, imagine if the vaunted return of the PB’s happened here!!!

I’m guess the only person I have on ignore is being a sanctimonious (to the wrong side a la his Irish comments) dickhead again and deflecting by telling the other person to chill.

Over my dead body! If they reach into the back catalogue they better take out something magenta because wearing the PBs in Futureball would be akin to pissing on them.

 

[Powerade 08]

I don't care what invention they come up with but I do care that they're afl listed players playing it. Let the best under 18s do it and get some exposure or something.

The best way to do it is let clubs recruit players from outside of the AFL. Let them nominate for a draft or whatever.

It’d be much more entertaining seeing a Boomer Harvey or even Robbie Young run around than whoever we have on the rookie list.

It is. Problem is I am learning it. I will slip more often then others. Worse, sometimes I won't realize the problem is a cultural clash until is too late.

Even though travellers know the rule, it is not easy to apply it concretelly. It is not my first dance with this kind of issue. Even if you try to emulate the locals, you will get it wrong. Still, you try to get along.

I know shit is going to happen, but I roll the dice anyway. As travellwers know, in the end, the outcome tend to be positive. So, sad as those may be, one takes the bad moments as lessons and move on.
