GOOD MORNING AMERICA'S HOMEPAGE:
gma.yahoo.com/
This is so cringe to watch when your Australian
Peyton #Goat I know right
Peyton #Goat lol I know i was cringing.
Frog Duck are you in the video
That Mountain Biker no you?
Frog Duck no im a Aussie
She said Ossie rules... AHHHHHHH it's hard to listen to
They never say it right. It’s not that hard, it’s a z sound
Aaron Zimmerman pretty much yeah
I know
I cringe when Americans say Ossis rules
We should tell them to pronounce it - Ozzie or Ozzee. I guess the ‘ss’ throws them off, only natural, they are saying it the way it’s spelt with ss. It’s us Aussies that change the sound of ss to zz.
Aussie: pronounced "Ozzie", as in Ozzie Osbourne, NOT "Ossy" as in Ocelot.
I seriously dont understand why this is so hard to say for US Americans. People from overseas can pronounce Arkansas and fucking "Graham" the stupid ways you say them so please at least try.
As an American,I would like to personally apologize for our retarted news hosts,the fact that we changed Arkansaw to Arkansas for no reason,and the fact that we pronounce graham as gram.
96 Bars and "retarded" to "retarted"?
chazzatheninja idk okay I'm American XD
Reread.. he's clearly emphasising the pronunciation
96 Bars You Americans really do have an atrocious grasp of grammar and English in general.
I live in us but my dad is from australia, and he helped create the philly team. If more americans found out about australian football they would love it
@M Who cares! What's your point? This has nothing to do with soccer!
@M god ur such a virgin
@M Manchester United sucks lmao
@M of course there are more slow, weak, small, sftck people in the world, it makes sense they play soccer. They get to wander up and down a tiny pitch, taking turns to faint. That's it, that's all they do, no-one ever gets excited. Australia is probably the only place on Earth that CAN play Australian Rules Football!
The game goes for 2 hours, the players run 10 to 12 miles, a fair % of that is sprinting. getting smashed while they're doing it. They must be ambidextrous, able to leap small buildings and run the 100 in less than 11 seconds. And tough. Tough enough to demolish buildings with their bare hands. Small players are 6 foot, but those over 7 foot find it difficult to run far and fast.
Quite simply, AFL players are the greatest athletes on the planet.
Watch; "What Is AFL Aussie Rules Explained", followed by "AFL Biggest Hits". Then watch the 2005, 2006, 2018 AFL Grand Finals played in front of 100,000 spectators.
You might not emerge from that rabbit hole.
Soccer looks quite pale and anaemic after this.
BTW, Australian Rules Football is the oldest codified and REGISTERED game of football in the world, 1859, the FIRST and ORIGINAL game of football.
Rugby and Soccer/Faintball came much later.
Elements of Australian Rules Football were appropriated by other sports.
@@Rastusmishka12 he's a spammer he's been posting the same comment on other sport videos for a decade now
Thank you for not referencing Vegemite.
lostinbrisbane of a i
Hey
lostinbrisbane ikr
Except you mentioned it ....cringe
Pre game pick me up.
So happy to see AFL becoming so popular in the USA.
Same, especially seeing that they're starting a new club this year too!
No
im not
That may be so, but there are an estimated 10 Quintillion ants in the world. Football of any code is clearly doomed.
@M Who cares! What's your point? This has nothing to do with soccer!
Greatest sport in the world
Dazzalinco1 true
Dazzalinco1,only to some Aussies.
definitely!
Dazzalinco1 yes yes yes
No Basketball is.
lol its pronounced auzzie here down under!
Lucy Geddes it's ozzie...
Lucy Geddes ik lol the cringe
Ikr not ossy
Ausssie why you prominently pronouncing the s?
Your not the only one buddy I was triggered as well I'm from Australia
Great to see other nations taking our game and enjoying it. Have fun and stay safe.
Thanks debbie, say hi to Mark and the kids for me xoxo
@M Who cares! What's your point? This has nothing to do with soccer!
The way she says “Aussie” 😂😂😂
Ossy lol
OSSY
Australian rules football started in the 1850s.Some AFL clubs are amongst the oldest fooball clubs in the world still running .The oldest includes all types of footbal.l
Up the catters!!
@@thebige7302
Lucky win today haha, we made a mistake right at the end that gave you guys a goal
Gg anyway we’ll get you next time
Aussie Gaming its ok i know we wont be the same without Ablett, if we are playing like this so early in the season then we definitely dont have a chance, at least we aren’t carlton.
Rugby is older, Tom willis went to England to a rugby school and come back home and made Aussie rules, in 1858
@@lealand423
That’s the actual league tho
Aboriginal tribes have played their version of AFL for centuries
1:14-1:29 if anyone has ever seen the ‘What is AFL? Aussie Rules Explained’ video, you can clearly tell they tried to copy that almost exactly.
Yeah, I noticed that too
So good to see the sport taking off in the states. Who cares if they're "shit"... they're out there having fun, learning the rules and guess what? Will more than likely support an Aussie team and put money into streaming it, buying merch, becoming a member etc. What's so bad about that? More interest and money for a great sport.
Peno1992 definitely awesome mate 😁
Volleyball... basketball... rugby and soccer ALL ROLLED INTO ONE!
I like it!!!!
its actually older than all those sports so they took parts of footy and copied it if u put it that way.
Skills of many other sports but really it is not like any of them it's is just Australian Football.
I think this will take off with some good marketing. Can't get a jersey playing American football, soccer is too soft cos you can't hit a bloke; answer Aussie Rules.
From Australia: the way the reporter says “Aussie”! Lol
So no one outside of Australia is allowed to play it from reading these comments. "Best game in the world" but no one but Australians are allowed to play it. Last time I checked they play baseball and American football in Australia. Good for them. Play whatever the hell you want if you enjoy it.
Yeah mostly young kids teens comments.
All good !
Anyone can play it - including women did you not just watch this???
@@sharronsimmons8166 did you not understand my comment? It was a direct response to the stream of negative comments about Americans playing Aussie rules and in their opinion, doing a horrible job at it
Mmmm only seeing positive comments here. You seem a little sensitive. You best give Aussie rules a pass mate
Aussie here - anyone can play it and there are even organized teams and organized competitions in Asia and around the world for that matter. Sanctioned AFL games have even been played on foreign soil. It doesn’t matter how skilled the players are as long as it gets people together and they enjoy it.
Im ozzie.....
For those other ozzies out there saying how bad they are at the sport, why not be supportive of the fact that theyre embracing our sport? Of course they arent going to be at our skill level.
It's just like you guys going and playing american football, you all would be terrible at the sport. Get over yourselves..
Kipling Holder exactly right mate. I love that our friends from across the ocean are embracing part of our culture for a change. Sports SHOULD BE ENJOYED. SEEING OTHER PEOPLE HAVING FUN SHOULD MAKE PEOPLE HAPPY.
The man speaks truth we’ve been playing for 150 years plus they have only been playing a few years give them a chance.
Im an aussie and I think its Great to see other countries enjoying the sport I love
Awesome to see people from other countries playing Aussie Rules, cannot wait for the international cup league next year, might go and see a couple of games.
Paul 2 years later...
If that dose happen I think we all know who would win
luke borst New Zealand did with Papa New Guiana in 2nd and US in 3rd. Australia doesn’t participate
@@thomashollingsworth9048 makes sense the fuzzies are good at the sport , indegenious players are quite good and speedy also
The next Australian Football International Cup was supposed to go ahead in 2020 but didn’t because of COVID-19. It was going to be rescheduled this year in 2021 and was going to be played on the Sunshine Coast but because of uncertainty around international travel and the financial impacts from the virus, the AFIC will sadly not go ahead in 2021
What's Ossie rules?
Australian rules football.
we call it 'footy'
Oliver Nelson the best fucking game in the world btw its footy not ossy rules btw what the fuck is ossy aussie is pronounced ozzy
Absolutely love how other countries, especially America, are trying Aussie rules and growing the game in those countries. Good luck to all USAFL clubs, especially newbies Hawaii Eagles and Richmond Lions, for the 2019 season! Wouldn't mind seeing a new team in New Jersey, Birmingham AL, Jackson MS, South Carolina, Pittsburgh PA, Salt Lake City UT or possibly even Alaska.
Those that don’t know what this sport is, it’s called Australian rules football, also known as ‘footy’ and is Australian football. The best sport on the planet and the only professional sport invented in Australia and the AFL or Australian Football League being the premier competition. I definitely recommend that you go to a game, you will have your mind blown. AFL players have a very remarkable amount of skill and the fans flock to games in tens of thousands with the Grand Final in late September every year gets a crowd of at least 100,000
Only two countries have a properly developed Aussie Rules football but in the other country it is not called Aussie Rules football but is the sport closest to Aussie rules football in terms of rules and that is Gaelic Football it is played in Ireland, Gaelic Football is actually much older than Aussie Rules football but both Gaelic and Aussie football players can play both codes.
Soccer players pretend that they are hurt football players pretend they aren’t.
once played... never forgotten... best contact sport for a wide range of people.
If they played actual football international Australia would be like America in basketball
except even better for comparison, spain sometimes comes close to the states
What is "actual football international"?
Which football code are you referring to?
+paspax actual football, aussie rules
funnily enough there are a massive number of teams around the World playing Aussie rules.
Japan, China, PNG, Scotland, England, Finland, New Zealand, Canada and the list goes on, in fact in the AFL itself, there are players from Ireland, Sudan, USA and Canada and so forth, so yes people from all over the world are playing the sport, even a friend of mine from Finland knew about the sport before visiting Australia as they also play the sport there as well.
There is a international competition. Australia aren't aloud to compete
the way she says Ozzie 😂
Dear Americans: please never speak the word 'Aussie' out loud again.
it's OZZIE NOT FUCKIN OSSIE!!!!
😑🔫...
Its Aussie..
+Jamie Andrews I'm sure he knows how to spell it, he's just stating the pronunciation, otherwise he'd be saying "It's Aussie not Aussie!" Lol
+RysterialProductions gotcha 👌👌
GamerDares wins wrong it's Aussie.
New York Magpies lol
im gonna go there and dominate their league cos its the only way i could win a brownlow aha
OOOO the magpies watch out theyll peck your eyes out!
There playing like how you would in Auskick 😂
There's now a major women's league in Australia :)
sno86 no one could give a shit about it it's not for women
yesss is love it!!! im a 12 year old girl and ive been playing footy for 6 years, i consider my self pretty good for my age and would one day love to play for the womens league ( WAFL)!! GO THE ROOS
What crap New York KnicksFan7 anyone can play the game is not elitist personally I love Women's Footy is great
New York KnicksFan7.
Ah, but you're very wrong my good man. There are some shielas in WAFL that could run rings around a lot of the blokes on the field.
Have a read of young Niamh Ridge's comment again, she's got the spirit.
New York KnicksFan7 are you kidding me. I’m under 14’s and I’ve been playing for four years. Womens afl will grow to be just as big as men’s. It will take time. Just you watch. I would love to be an afl women’s player. And I can tell you that people care about women’s afl.
When they kick the footy it has no back spin. They just go for a torp
Saw a couple of blokes dropping it onto the boot correctly but yeah.
wait what? Americans play footy too? 😹😹😹
GO JASON HOLMES!!!!!!!!!!!!!! REPRESENTING AMERICA!!!!!
Evan Green Pfft come down under yank and we'll show how a real man plays ball.
None of that body armour shit here yank.
As an Australian who has played football before, these guys are actually pretty good at AFL for a foreign country.
AFL - Chaos incarnate. WHICH IS WHY IT IS SO GOOD!
0:29 Ausee rules football?
I understand that AFL games are popular on Spanish language cable TV channels & that there are there are two Aussie Rules football leagues in operation in the States.
I also heard that there was a semi-pro College league or something, but I could be wrong.
what pisses me off as an Aussie is when i hear other Aussies giving people shit over how they pronounced something or how they played something. for fuck sakes the Americans are embracing the sport and having a red hot go. that attitude is what our great country was built on . Cut them some slack and let them enjoy it. they will only progress as time does. when the fuck did we grow so precious. i remember when we Aussies were layed back and didn't sweat the small things
Small-minded tards everywhere these days.
Keeps people fit with all the running and adds some toughness with the bumps and tackles what's not to like?
Go Pies! The Collingwood magpies here in Melbourne wear vertical black and white stripes. A very popular player in the team is Mason Cox from Texas, who had only played basketball before he came to Australia to try out. The link below shows Cox in action. His parents are shown in the stands and the Collinwood crowd was chanting USA USA USA...
th-cam.com/video/TbDVQKQnYoU/w-d-xo.html
The 'pies are again in the play offs (called finals here) on Saturday. It's a winter sport here and the season ends in the southern spring.
I think the main reason holding the game back in other countries is the lack of large oval playing fields. Such fields were established for cricket before footy became a sport in the mid 19th century. The footage above shows a game being played at the Melbourne Cricket Ground, simply known as 'the G' which can hold 100,000 spectators.
In the words of Australia's greatest ever songwriter Paul Kelly-
"From little things, big things grow."
May our great game grow and thrive in your land. It is actually a fun game to play at any level, if you have some level of fitness, and are prepared to cop a bruise or two. Cheers, from Australia.
I need a moment to calm down. I watched the first like 10 seconds and I'm watching this on my desktop FYI, as soon as she said OSSIE i legit screamed in frustration and threw my headphones off my head and at the computer. Its fucking OZZIE rules not OSSIE rules!!! I'm so angry right now!! UGH!
+Dakoda Tasker Just like it's Z NOT Zed!
its actually zed
Dakoda Tasker They know it’s Ozzie,they just like to put us down like calling us Down Under,lolz.
I wanna see it take off big time in America and other parts of the world. It would be great for the game. Go pies.
The Real Abc Is Australian Broadcasting Corporation lol xD
The way she says Aussie mentally and physically hurts me
I like seeing people all over in the world play a sport I grew up playing but I'm more of a NBA person
It’s great to see Americans playing footy
Nice handball at the end.
Australians are awesome people.
Thanks mate!
Thank you! ☺
Thanks mate
yeah where your cousins!....love ya dude!!
Thanks mate! Aussies are awesome people
This right here....how do people in the US and Canada view AFL....once they've got a reasonable understanding of the rules?
It’s good to see people ditching NFL and joining AFL. Also it’s Aussie rules, say it with the accent.
You guys probably don't even know what a Magpie is.
good story and great attitude by this american report :)
I do love the fact that, every now and then, some American show will do a segment about Australian football. It'll never take off there like it does here, but any interest is positive.
Yes evolution in the last two hundred years.
The real estate needed to have decent stadiums around the world is the biggest hurdle! $$$$$$$$
Would you rather AFL or NFL, I 100% rather AFL
I love how yanks say aaassseee roolzz
Please stop saying, Os see (Aussie) it's pronounced, Ozzy. And that's 18 players per side, so 36 players in all. Not just 18.
This is cringe because I'm good at footy
I hear ya man, I just got selected for the Brisbane academy.
I'm only 10 (I'm under 10s) and I'm probably better than most of them lol.
Ohhh look out guys, we got some pros over here.
Well when you make the academy you are probably ok
wNIGHTM4RESw Yeah but you're attention seeking because nobody asked? Or cares really.
It’s very like Ireland’s Gaelic football.just rougher
Gaelic football is also good.
2:22 I think I heard a snap
Now the US should turn the camera towards Australia. There is a Gridiron team just down the road from me in the outer East of Melbourne.
worst part about being ruck is breaking your thumb 2 times and being unable to play footy again
or you just jump over them and hit it down your rovers throat
The worst part is when your trying to get a really good mark, but the ball busts your finger. It hurts. I kept playing when that happened and it was excruciating. What's worst was someone stepped on it. It was broken..
jarred fingers when the ball hits the tip then everyone complains when you drop marks and miss targets but youcant help it cos you have like 1 less finger lmao
You should check out the AFL Women's League.
Great to see more people enjoying are game!
The way they say Aussie kills me
she pronounces aussie to rhyme with hiss. The ss should sound like a 'zee'.
and i thought the geelong districts football league was bad
Spencer Ashby lol the GFL is pretty shit
She calls it "aw see" rules football
This is good for beginners I've nearly made it into Geelong
They should do game with the Aussie Rules Champions vs the NFL Champions in a combined rules game like they do with Aussie Rules and Gaelic Football.
They actually tried to create a hybrid game between both sports called AUSTUS back in the early 1940s, but it just didn’t work out.
There are not 18 players on the oval but 36 players: 18 players per team and four interchange players per team on the sidelines.
i’d love to go over there and have a go playing with em 🙌🏼
What does the coach play with the magpies like Collingwood but my team is west coast
There are 18 players A SIDE on the field, not 18 total. It's a BIG field! Best game in the world, of course.
it really gets on my nerve when people pronounce the double "s" Aussie as and s. its is pronounced like a z so it sounds like Azzie or Ozzie.
Lol the way they says Aussie
There needs to be an afl store in the us since Australia besides America has an nfl store
I kinda want to go over there to just dominate
Ffs aussie is pronounced ozzy not ossy
18 per team ons field, 36 on a field
Loved that u.s does this, I’m proud Australian
ok im sorry but it triggers me the way she says aussie at the start.
Is that true what he said about no real amateur sport after college in America?
at 0:51 you arent allowed to tap the ball like that
Yep a real good report!
nice tap to advantage at the end
No offence but those players are pretty bad. lol PS OZZIE NOT OSSIE!
Aussie!
Jamie Andrews I know how to spell it, but I wanted to talk about pronounciation not spelling otherwise I would have been: Aussie not Aussie. lol
+Alexandra Lee gotcha 👌👌
Alexandra Lee well they never grew up with footy.
Australian rules football in my opinion proves that helmets in American football causes brain damage, the impact bounce around in the helmet or something.
best game in the world!!
Good on ya New York Magpies! It truly is a great sport. We don’t really care how you pronounce the word Aussie just as long as you understand shrimp are prawns 😉
We call really large shrimp, prawns.
What is this American footy I’m from Australia and I twisted my ankle playing it in school they are barely getting tackled
Lets go mate bit of AFL in America
yeah "girls can do it" but not with guys. They'd be destroyed. That's why when you do, you only see Girl Kickers, and SOMETIMES girl QB's
So nice to see the Aussies spreading thier version of the game. Meanwhile up in the land of always winter, Canada, guards thier version of Football like it's gold. They don't export it to other nations & they by law try to keep our version of the game out.
That was so cringe maybe afl should stay in aus
Falcon Wynntaylor their just to shit and un-co
Ozzie Rules. Trust me, I'm koalafied.
Aussies call it "Training" not practice.
As a footy player my whole life this does give me aids to watch, but good on them for playing
Aussie rules football is over 150 years old
