Having said all that League has been pi$$ing me off as a spectacle lately.
I'll have to agree with you Byron. AFL is good as a training exercise for league players as they are less likely to get hurt before a game and it does get them fit along with improving certain skills. Soccer just is the least for me. It attracts the wrong people from players to spectators.

It does sound like you have cranky old man syndrome Byron.
