I don't like AFL but my Mrs is from Melbourne and likes the rubbish so I have been to a half a dozen games unfortunately.They say AFL is a better live sport and NRL is a better tv product, but i've been to a couple here in Perth during my time and I had no idea where to look. No idea where they get that idea from.
I'm not sure what it's like in Perth but the games I been to in Melbourne and Adelaide, the atmosphere was hands down far better then any NRL game I have been to.
Constantly the crowds making loud noise and no matter where you seat you get action at all times.
With the NRL I find half the game the crowds almost silent and sometimes you don't get any action down your end for awhile.
