Im not sure how you can be confused over the 2??

Answer 3

There are three main points of difference, all the rest are pretty minor.

Passing: a rugby pass and a handball are two completely different things and, in rugby the ball can only be passed backwards.

Scoring: In rugby you get four points for simply carrying the ball across a line and other points for kicking a conversion after scoring a try or kicking a field goal, whereas in Aussie Rules field goals are the only way to score with the most accurate scoring six points and lesser ones earning one point.

Stopping of play: In rugby play stops when the player with possesion of the ball is stopped, in Aussie Rules play continues until the ball is stopped.
