Goal

The object of Aussie Rules Football's game is to score fewer points than the opposition. You can either push the ball between the goal posts, or keep the opposing team scoreless. Players use both their hands to move the ball. There are several rules for how the ball should be moved.

The Australian Rules football match is divided into halves. Each half lasts for 10 minutes. Each half also includes a two-minute break. The field umpire flings the football up to begin play. After scoring a super goal of 10 points, the umpire gives the ball back to the field for play. In each half, the umpire will throw the ball up again for play to begin. The team with the last touch of the ball in any half will be awarded a free kick.

Behind

The history of Aussie rules football is rich. It all began in 1858 when the Melbourne Football Club began playing. It was a three-day match between Melbourne Grammar School, Scotch College that saw its first match. These two schools have been competing every year since. Arthur Wills, who had yet to create Australian football rules, was appointed as umpire.

Ruckman

The Ruckman plays an important role in the fast-paced game Aussie Rules Football. He is responsible for setting up play and contesting the ball. Contrary to other forms of Australian football there is no offside rule. The game is usually started when one team has 'held the ball'.


Ruckmen are typically tall and strong players with a strong arm and strong legs. Ruckmen are responsible for winning rucks. Because they can take on multiple roles for their team's team, the ruckman also has the title of utility player. They will spend 90 percent their time on-the field during a game.

Differing rules of the game

In the middle of the 19th century, Australian rules football was established in Melbourne. Although it is not clear where the game originated, it may have been inspired from Gaelic or Aboriginal football. While the game has undergone many changes over the years it remains essentially the same. The game's major differences are the fact that it is played in 4 quarters rather than halves.

Australian football is played in four quarters lasting 20 minutes. Each quarter begins with a ruck, which is similar to a jump ball in basketball. A ruck is a game where players from either side try to tip the ball towards a teammate. The ball is then advanced down the field by the team with it.

Origins of this game

Origins of Aussie rules football are obscure but are said to have started in Melbourne, Australia, around 1858. Scotch College and Melbourne Grammar played their first game in a green space near the MCG. The game was influenced by English and Irish football as well as Indigenous football called Marngrook. The history of Indigenous influence has been a subject of much war. It was at its height during the 150th anniversary celebrations.

Australian football is a spectator game that involves vigorous tackling, aerial marking and contests for possession. It was originally designed to keep cricketers in shape over the winter season. The Melbourne Football Club published the first set laws for the game in 1859. Since then, the AFL has grown to be Australia's largest sport and its premier competition culminates in the AFL Grand Final.
