Rules Definition and 539 Threads

International rules football (Irish: Peil na rialacha idirnáisiunta; also known as international rules in Australia and compromise rules or Aussie rules in Ireland) is a team sport consisting of a hybrid of football codes, which was developed to facilitate international representative matches between Australian rules football players and Gaelic football players.
The first tour, known as the Australian Football World Tour, took place in 1967, with matches played in Ireland, the United Kingdom, and the United States. The following year, games were played between Australia and a touring County Meath Gaelic football team, Meath being the reigning All-Ireland senior football champions. Following intermittent international tests between Australia and Ireland, the International Rules Series between the senior Australian international rules football team and Ireland international rules football team has been played intermittently since 1984, and has generally been a closely matched contest. The sport has raised interest and exposure in developing markets for Gaelic and Australian football and has been considered a development tool by governing bodies of both codes, particularly by the AFL Commission.
International rules football does not have any dedicated clubs or leagues. It is currently played by men's, women's, and junior teams only in tournaments or Test matches.

    Suggestion Intro to newcomers

    @jedishrfu posted a small summary of the main rules to a new poster. I think this is a really good idea. New posters do not read the rules and they get upset when what seems innocuous to them, is an absolute no no to PF. Cranks, trolls and the like will always be so, but the odd...

    Must You Have a Card in Hand to Ask for It in Go Fish?

    Playing Go Fish with my granddaughter. Is there a rule that says I must have a card in my hand in order to ask for it? I do not see such a rule. I can see both ways leading to problems: Suppose I must have one: I've got a hand of 3 cards, all of which are 7s. I just asked if she has any 7s...

    B Why are the division rules for surds the way they are?

    Why does, 4√64÷2√4 =2√16 ? I can see the method (4÷2=2, √64÷√4=√16) But why is it not; 4 times √64 divided by 2 times √4 (as per BODMAS) i.e, 4 times 8 divided by 2 times 2, which = 32 Nb. When I put it into my calculator that way it gives 32 as the answer (4*√64÷2√4)

    Strict forum rules vs learning science
