Unlikely Swan ... former Canadian rugby union player Mike Pyke will make his debut for Sydney this weekend.
 THE AFL'S International Rules series will go ahead in October, despite the league's cost-cutting and Ireland's crumbling economy.

Nine players went under the knife in the off-season and while most have completed their rehab, some big names need more time to fully recover. Michael O'Loughlin will resume running soon after extensive ankle surgery and Tadhg Kennelly, who needed shoulder and groin surgery, is unlikely to see any NAB Cup action. Dual Brownlow medallist Adam Goodes (groin surgery) is another looking toward the premiership season for a return.

WHAT'S NEW?
Former Canadian rugby player Mike Pyke, yet to debut, Daniel Currie and two-game player Jesse White are still in contention for the No.2 ruck spot. Following in Tadhg Kennelly's footsteps is Irish rookie Brendan Murphy, who the Swans say could play later in the year.
www.news.com.au/dailytelegraph/s ... 40,00.html Murphy arrived in Australia in 2007 and impressed with his ability to adapt to the game. He played 16 games for the Swans' reserves last season and showed enough improvement to suggest that he may be a chance to make his AFL debut this season. A tall and solidly built player, Murphy has outstanding speed and may be groomed for a key position post either in attack or in defence. |

thats an exaggeration theres at most only 1 game a week approaching 70/80K and games were theres no rivalry are pretty poorly attended. eg melbourne v crows only got 14000 the other week. still NRL games in ANZ and sometimes SFS do look shocking 
i like afl in small doses, sometimes it just seems a bit pointless and the scoring system is ridiculous. but interest round my town is pretty big after a bloke from it called martin clarke signed for collingwood a couple of years ago. turns out hes quite good and got nominated for rookie of the year in his debut year.

AFL is one of the best attended sporting leagues in the world, mainly due to the fact that Melbourne is the exact opposite of Sydney, a sports-mad city.

Anyone know how Martin Clarke of Collingwood is doing this year? Comes from around my area, big news when he reached the AFL.

here is an example of its Finacial power
The AFL is the most attended sporting league in Australia; it is also the most popular sport competition in terms of TV ratings in the nation.[4] The AFL is currently the fourth-most attended professional sports league in the world in terms of attendance per match, with an average attendance of over 36,000. The AFL is the dominant football code in Victoria, South Australia, Western Australia, Northern Territory and Tasmania.[5] In addition, Australian rules football is the most participated football code in these states and territories.[6]
A salary cap (known as the Total Player Payments or TPP) is also in place as part of the league's equalisation policy.
In 2007, this is AUD$7 million per club. Salaries of draft selections are fixed for two years. Salaries for senior players are not normally released to the public, although the average is estimated at over A$200,000 [13] and the top few players can expect to earn up to AUD$800,000 a year.[
