I miss the fighting, it's funny.
A few years ago 2 teams played a match at The Oval, it was a mass punch up from the first whistle and I think it was abandoned.
If anyone remembers that and can find some footage from You Tube I wouldn't mind seeing it again.

Haven't watched it in a while but it's a yes from me.

There used to be a series of games between Irish and Aussie teams playing Gaelic and Aussie rules.

I resisted for some time, but when I actually went to a game with someone who explained the rules, I find that I am getting into it.

Total yes and going to see Hawthorn v Geelong at the MCG was one of the highlights of my sport watching life. Amazing speed, toughness and skill.

Brilliant game to watch live (helps if you are sitting next to someone telling you what is going on), but still find it dull to watch on tv.

I don't have a clue about the rules, but on the basis that it's a sport which features muscular men running around in very tight vests and short shorts: it's a yes from me.
