After the controversy surrounding the changes to AFL rules at the start of the year, Lynden Bullow and Travis Martin decided to visit a conversation that has plagued Australia’s pub sport conversations for decades: which of the two major codes of football is “better“?

With Rugby Union and the A-League plummeting in popularity, both Bullow and Martin thought it only right to try and see who tops the list.
