Yes it's called the Barassi Line. Traditionally rugby league was the most popular sport in New South Wales and Queensland while being niche in the rest of the country. Aussie rules is quite niche in New South Wales and Queensland but is the most popular sport in the rest of the country.

 

Are you in Aussie rules or rugby league territory?

Aussie rules I live in Tasmania. I was surprised you knew about the barrasi line you must be well informed or someone who likes tolookinto info presented to them.

Yes, I do like to read about sports and Australia is really fascinating when it comes to sports. But unfortunately living in Canada I've never met another AFL fan in my life. I don't get why Tasmania doesn't have an AFL team but Gold Coast does (Sydney I can understand because of how many people are there). I'm a Richmond fan. If we had enough fans on here I would consider starting an AFL thread.
