May 23, 2011 Stateside Footy - Episode 11-02: Boston Demons vs. New York Magpies
Read more » |
Last week in a Herald Sun article, Hawthorn President, Jeff Kennett questioned the rationale and the AFL's commitment to growing the game outside of Australia. "I don't know why they do it. AFL football will never be an international game. To be quite honest, I would rather my players, if they were asked, didn't go on the trip. It's an unnecessary risk. I think it's just a junket for the officials of the AFL and the media.''
The USAFL Board and Staff members would like to wish everyone a safe and enjoyable long Memorial Day weekend as we welcome the unofficial start of summer.
