I've heard that in general, Eurosport 2 will be showing the Friday and/or Saturday night game live. A fantastic development, really.

To answer his question they did actually meet once. http://www.thefootyrecord.net/match.php?m=589&acct=INTL If this loon actually had anything to do with Danish footy he might have known that.

What would it take to get this clown permanently banned? In previous threads I have proven him to be a liar, is not Danish, can not understand the language, and has never played in DAFL despite his claims to the contrary. I accept that his remarks are sometimes entertaining but to the...

or get belted by 30 goals each game.

Absolutely

If that's their reasoning then I think we should be waiting until 2013 and then every four years. Leap years = Olympics Leap years +2 = Soccer World Cup Leap years +3 = Cricket World Cup Let's fill in the Leap year +1 slot! But I agree with VikingSven ... even every four years is too...

No doubt alot of you watched Eurosport 2's telecast. What were your thoughts? What on earth were they doing with the commentary? It sounded like they had a bloke who sounded part Aussie-part Brit, obviously not at the G (I guess he was in a London studio), overdubbing the live crowd noise...

Michael Neugebauer played his first game of Australian Football in DENMARK when he was 17 in 2000. He was born and bred in Denmark and at that stage had never set foot in Australia. Of course through his interest in footy he has spent a bit of time in Australia since then, but he is NOT an...

I can think of several internaional players who would have felt right at home with this kind of umpiring .... and umpire ! :D Seriously if this is all true (about the level of (in)experience of the umps I mean), then this is a real problem. I would have thought that one of the main advantages...

Surely under Semi Finals you meant winners and not losers? Good idea but if I read that right it would require seven distinct match days and several teams would be playing on all of them. Too much. Prior to the tournament I was a little critical and thought the AFL should have insisted on...

Yep ... I was going to post something similar. Fantastic effort guys. Let's not forget they are all volunteers and the head honcho even lives in Adelaide and went to Melbourne/Geelong/Warrnambool to cover it. Not only is it great that they give of their time and money to do this, but I also...

Yes I would. But you're not serious are you moonshine??? If you had played in DAFL you would know that our records are probably the most meticulous in international footy. OK, for starters, here is a list of every match the Crocs played in 1999...

Full details of the IC matches can be found on The Footy Record at the following link: http://www.thefootyrecord.net/dbcomp2.php?acct=INTL&c=145&page=fr. If anyone would like to correct any of the information that is there or add to it with more details, new/different team logos, player...

I've read it again. Your comment was a direct response to a comment about the crowd being "against the Americans" in a match against Denmark.

Newbies??? Denmark is the third oldest league outside Australia.

The AFL scheduled it this way because it's what the countries wanted. There are two reasons why it ended up this way. 1. Of the 16 teams, there are (fortunately or otherwise), four very good sides (Ireland, NZ, PNG, USA), four very new sides (Finland, India, China, PPT), and eight in the...

The Danish league keeps very detailed records. 15 Danes played for the Crocs in 1999. None of them were called Frank (for a given name anyway) and none of them were born on February 14.

Some interesting ideas. India hadn't crossed my mind and would be fair for almost all attendees except for the northern Americans but as someone said they are the ones with the disposable income. :D I still think New York or somewhere else on the east coast of the US might be interesting...

I have heard that the plan is for the next IC to be held in 2011 - still only another three year gap. Too short IMO. I even think four years is too soon but every three years is definitely too often. For some countries it costs a fortune to make it, and many simply won't get there. But what's...

Hej, Denmark AFL, Jeg er lidt nysgerrig .... hvad var den sidste DAFL kamp du var med til?

In my opinion this is the biggest challenge facing international football leagues, particularly those in countries that lack the cultural links to Australia which would give the league more plentiful umpiring resources (UK, USA, other English speaking countries). And it's surprising it hasn't...

Actually it's not. Scandinavia = Denmark+Sweden+Norway. Scandinavia+Finland and a few others are considered the NORDIC countries.

Have I missed something? Some of the comments in this thread imply that some sort of draw or at least poolings have been announced. I'm not aware of anything. Is there any news in this area?

Who doesn't (aside from the I/P team)? When did you last see Denmark play, or Sweden for that matter?

In the words of one J.McEnroe .... you CANNOT be serious !!!!!!!!!!!! Terry, Terry, Terry ... where WERE you on June 14 ??? Come on ... home ground and the weather didn't make THAT much difference.

Good thing he wasn't reported - I reckon he would have hated that. :D

I think whatever credibility you had left just went out the window. Oh, and by the way, the name of the sport is Australian Football. Calling it "AFL" is like calling soccer "FIFA".

Now this is an interesting comment. By claiming that draws in Australian Football are "even less satisfying than in football (soccer)", you are conceding that they ARE indeed somewhat dissatisfying even in soccer. And given the number of drawn games, the sport on the whole must be pretty...

Interesting that you slag off at the humble behind. I believe that more than anything else, it's the one thing that makes Australian Football a fundamentally better sport than all the others. It gives footy's scoring more granularity than any other code - scores averaging 80 with the...

Why are there so many anti-footy zealots on this board, like the above clowns and Brendothejerk? I'm involved in an overseas footy league but I confess I have no clue where the similar boards for RL and RU would be, and even if I did I wouldn't waste my time posting on them. I have nothing...
