Why not just play rugby or soccer?

Seems overly complicated, but I'd still watch it cause at least it sounds like high action. Australian Football League.....look it up. We should be playing this. Not American Football....not Association Football.....not even RUGBY comes close to the level of action and skill found in AFL. Some of the marks they pull of are amazing.

A frozen fish would certainly make it an interesting scene! I had an opportunity to hold the ball and it was surprisingly light in weight. I hope I gat a chance to photograph it sometime.

No problem. I think you could substitute a good-sized frozen fish or a large loaf of day-old French bread and it wouldn't detract from the game a bit.
