I was watching TV on Saturday with my Dad, and I was flicking through the channels in the ads and we found a new TV channel called Sommet Sports and AFL was on. It was about half way through the game when I changed the channel. AFL is a series like superugby but it is not superugby though. My favourite teams in the competition are Fremantle Dockers and the Brisbane Lions.
I wanted to watch the Crusaders and the Chiefs game on Saturday night but instead I watched AFL on Sommet Sport. The rules of the game that I know of are you can bounce the ball and throw it to your team mate and then volleyball hit it. There are 4 goal posts on each side of the field and if you kick it through the middle one that is 6 points and if you kick it into the left one you get 1 point and i'm not sure if you get for a score. Instead of the field being rectangle it is a circle which is weird. Instead of being 40 minutes each half it is 20 minutes of playing then another one more 20 minutes of playing then it would be another break and then another 20 minutes of playing then another 20 minutes playing then that would be the game over. It’s a mix of soccer rugby and i'm not too sure but i think that it is basketball and volleyball too.
I was watching it all by myself but Dad watched a bit with me but not much though. I wanted the Fremantle Dockers too win. I was going for Fremantle Dockers and not for the Adelaide Crows which were in 12th place on the points table and the Fremantle Dockers were 5th place on the points table.
I hadn't seen or watched AFL before but I heard about it though when my Dad came back from Australia in Western Australia and he was in Perth a he was telling me about it but he didn't see it though but he heard all about it and he said all the Aussies are crazy and most of them are into it AFL over there said Dad.
I think I will keep on watching Sommet sports on tv. From now on and keep on watching AFL on that channel and see what else is on that channel. I like watching AFL because it’s something different to rugby and soccer and its got 4 goal posts on each side of the field and the field is a circle instead of a rectangle.
