and if there gunna tackle u just hand ball it away and if they still tackle u u get a free kick =)

Answer 3

Dude, you cant be scared all of your life.  You only live once.  You just have to get out there and do it.  Its kinda like getting a tattoo.  On your first on you think it is the most unbearable thing that you have ever felt.  Then you get it and it makes you feel good because you conquered that feeling.  Football is the same way.  Yeah you will probably have a few injuries.  I did, but the feeling of pride and satisfaction in something you achieved really outweighs the pain of a few bumps and bruises.  Go for it.

Answer 4

Move to England where the footballers never get crushed.

Answer 5

dude dont play if you are afraid to get hit

that is what the game is about

toughen up

Answer 6

That is a part of the game. If you are really that afraid of getting crushed, then maybe you should not play football. People who play scared are usually the ones that get hurt.

Answer 7

geez your a wuss i am little and i played i got crushed all the time not a big deal suck it up pain is weakness leaving the body

Answer 8

You might as well go for it. If you take a beating and decide you really don't want to play then at least you will know.

Answer 9

well trav, don't be so scared just cause u c those pros on tv getting hammered with lifelong injuries, that doesn't happen to every body.

statisticly speaking soccer has a much higher injury rate than AFL and I have been a soccer/AFL made fan since i could kick a ball. i still play soccer after i had 2 surguries on my left ankle from a few unfair tackles, but im still happy and living well.

so take my advice, u only get to live once live life to the max!

Answer 10

how would you get hurt, you have a helmet and a mattress strapped around you in American football.

mate maybe you should play basketball,soccer, girls games, or you could play individual games like golf or tennis.

any type of footy is not for you mate, it don't make you weak, just some people go in hard as, and you sound like you'd be thinking I'm gunna get hurt all the time,.

play something else, you'll be right, just watch the big fat steroids abusers on the telly. cheers mate.

Answer 11

Sit in the grandstand, and enjoy some other turkey getting mangled.

Speaking of turkeys, I'm going to have a glass of mineral water for breakfast on Christmas Day, to allow for a sumptuous lunch, with all the extras, extras, and more extras.
