What is the difference between Australian rules football and Rugby Union/Rugy League?

Question

And.. which of those is most popular in Australia?

Answer 1

Rugby has 15 players a square field, 2 posts and a try zone, all movements are well ruled, You can only pass by hand in your back while running and kick front top gain terrain. A lot more rules. And rugby is a gentlemen's game

Ozie rule has 20 players, a round field, 3 post to mark points while kicking, no try zone, few brutaity rules, almost every contact is permitted ecept I think, direct knock down. The ball has to go on the floor every few steps (rebound) and you mark points by kicking. The passing system is a bit like volley ball, you slam the ball with one hand while holding with another

Answer 2

Aussie Rules is the dominant sport in the country and takes far more skill to play than both league and union.
