So good he even made himself laugh out loud.

Personally, I'm disappointed we didn't get a women's team. I reckon the chix comp will be cool and the more tiger teams the better for mine.

More poo teams more like it.

Who really gives a poo. It is hard enough watching so called elite ffoty now days yet alone 10th rate females running around wishing they had balls.
What a joke. After the novelty has worn how many are going to watch this.

It all depends on the standard of footy. If it ends up being Division 4 ammos standard or something roughly similar i cant imagine it will captivate the nation.

If what we've seen the last few years (Doggies -v- Dees) is going to be the standard, then it will be great. Those games have been good to watch, better than some of the VFL games and I'm not just talking abput RFC VFL games either

I find that very hard to believe. An under 15 Newcastle side beat the women's australian soccer team 8-2 recently. If the best women footballers in Australia played an under 16 boys team, u16 would win 20+ goals. You have may have enjoyed the women's afl game yet there is not a snowflakes chance in hell it's up to d4 ammo standard let alone Vfl

Edit 7-0

jeez u talk utter garbage at times
“For My thoughts are not your thoughts,
Nor are your ways my ways,” says the Lord.
 
“For as the heavens are higher than the earth,
So are my ways higher than your ways,
And my thoughts than your thoughts."

Ok I'll dumb it down for u

Women are rubbish at sport

Compared to men

For example. A d4 Ammos side would destroy an AA women's team

Does that include individual sports like Golf, tennis, squash or shooting?

I think your right about most team sports though. But I'd guess that the world champion women's European handball side would beat most amateur men's team.

Is there consensus on this? Who has seen a womens game?

Im going to put a question out there for discussion:-

Do women in the afl deserve the same pay as the men in the afl?

They'll only be getting $20k each not $150k+

But in answer to your question my personal view is no

For the same reasons i dont believe women tennis players should get the same prize money at grand slams as men. They wont be doing the same amount of work.

Womens AFL season is only going for 8-10 weeks so just based on that they cant be paid the same IMHO
