Which game is more physical ? AFL VS RL ?

[ALwaysNorth]

Your posting as if the thread is attacking the "toughness" of Aussie Rules. It's not. It's simply about comparing AFL with RL. AFL is "tough", but RL is "tougher".

Point of order Mr Speaker , I know what the honourable members are referring to but we digress the topic is " more physical" toughness is not mentioned or lack of it inferred in either code if I read the thread correctly .

For toughness or "more physical" league wins hands down. Shane Webcke would eat most AFL players and spit them out. Gorden Tallis would laugh at Barry Hall if he came at him.
Harmsey37 you just proved the point most AFL players get hit when they aren't looking, the hip and shoulder is a glorified cheap shot. Most of the incidents in the 89 GF were the result of cheap shops. Brereton was the biggest cheap shot merchant going around.

There were alot of cheap shops in that GF I should have bought some. Cheap shots as well.

Length of gametime in RL = 80 minutes.
Length of gametime in AFL = 120 minutes.

You know, some chess games last for days.
