That would be fourth behind (in no particular order) Rugby Union, Rugby League and Aussie Rules would it?

That is is you count Aussie Rules as some kind of football at all. As far as I can see, it is the mutant offspring of a menage a trois between scoccer, rugby and basketball. Its primary tactic seems to be to scare the sh*t out of the opposition by jumping at their heads.

I am convinced that if you took away the ball from most Aussie Rules games, the players would just get on with the real purpose and have a damn good blue anyway
