Am I the only Aussie laughing at Rakkety Tamm's assumptions? They're legal in the Australian Football League, and we don't wear neck braces. All you have to do is make it look accidental. If you only watched the AFL Grand Final, Rakkety. You should check out Hall's clothesline on David Wirrapunda. Did anyone watch the leg break on Richmond's Nathan Brown? That was nasty. The only reason I can see why your athletes die in your sport, is that they're amateurs. I'll try and find a website with some shots of our sport for you. Then you can see how amateur your sport is.
Lol, I checked out some shots of their game, they're all pansies. They wear helmets and crap, lmao. Just like everything about American "physical" sports. They've only had 1 death in AFL, an LA Avengers player called Al Lucas, who died in April 10, 2005. There's been 1 in the AF2, a Julian Yearwood, apparently from heart problems and not from a sporting injury. Hardly the 15 Rakkety thinks there has been.[/quote]

Your obivously looking in the wrong places then!  Off the top of my head, #17, (AF2) Birmingham Bull Dogs quaterback Brandon Ledbettor, broken neck.  #25, (former AFL team)Carolina Cobra's WR/Saftey, Cory Siler, broken back.  #8, (former AF2 team) Durem Rebals, D-End/O-tackle, Billy Aires.  And we have to wear helmits because damn "health" compayies from outside the USA (mostly the French) keep sueing team due to deaths, hence why Caroina and Durem had to shut down, running out of money, so before you go mouthing off, learn stuff! HAH! you probly couldn't even last a single half in the [i]youth[/i] arena league.[/quote]
