| Hey Guys, I had a quick question.
I'm an American and I love American Football. Are there any similarities between American and Australian football or is it closer to rugby? At the end of the day, it's all about getting a ball across a line right? But what is the difference between rugby and aussie rules? |

Ah, interesting. We do that in American football as well, only for fewer points than crossing the goal line. It's called a field goal. I think they do the same thing in rugby but they do it while running with the ball whereas in American Football, they set up a formation, then snap the ball, then kick it, which makes it pretty much automatic, unless it's a very long kick or strong winds or someone gets a hand on the ball, etc. Thanks for informing me! |
