Oh, Blue Hen, thee of no clue, the $hit storm you have asked to be wrought upon yourself is beyond my meager skills to describe. How could you possibly confuse Rugby and Aussie Rules? Damn Americans!
You have been sentanced to read this and report back with an apology.

You would last two minutes on the streets of Melbourne. And yes I'm American, but I refuse to be stupid, that's all.
Rugby is to Footie as dirt BMX is to the Tour de France.
Rugby is to Footie as a Monster truck race is to Grand Prix.
Yes, the differences are subtle, but they make all the difference in the world.

I'll make it simple, Blue Hen
You don't post a Yankees web-site on the Red Sox message board.
You don't post a Michigan/Alabama/Miami Football link on a Ohio State/Auburn/FSU message board.
Footie fans hate Rugby, it splits the country into two.

Beautifully put Seattle Zen.
Rugby is played by guys with no necks, even less brains and supported by neanderthal types who like to run their heads into parked cars for fun.
Walk down the streets of Adelaide and ask if Rugby is the same as Aussie Rules and duck for cover as the sh*t hits the fan.

Ok, ok. Point made. I wonder if there is capability for an Aussie Rules wire.

Wow, you brought bh down so much he dropped the almighty.
Personally I think there's room for all sorts, but certainly respect the Aussie's split on this one.

A quote I like to refer to with regards to rugby :
Rugby is 4 men trying to shove 3 mens heads up 2 mens backsides
And an Aussie Rules quote (from Wayne Campbell)
Playing Aussie rules is like running a marathon where you get mugged at every drink station.
