change the ball

[mchal4]

Probably a dumb idea... why not just make the ball round ( like International Rules ) ?
(easier to control the ball, predict its movement, better skills, less randomness,
a point of difference to the men's game etc )

Because then it wouldn't be footy.
(Plus something about equality)

Could call it 'international rules' or something

Why not play on a rectangle field? And have 11 on the field instead of 22? Much easier to make teams and find fields to play on

Also instead of actually kicking and tackling and all that difficult stuff, the women should just sit on the sidelines and vote on what they would do with the ball if they were out there, and then the majority opinion wins, the ball gets relocated to its new spot on the ground, we advance 30 seconds on the clock and vote again.

Need to use a larger AFL ball, not change it to a Soccer/Gaelic ball.
