Three of Aussie rules' most unofficial experts get together to discuss the origins and evolution of the great Australian game. Starting with two English mobs' efforts to chase a severed head from one town square to another, our hosts explore the influence of the Eton and Rugby schools. They trace these colonial influences to the inception of the first codified rules in 1859 and then onwards to the game that exemplifies everything that's bloody grouse about footy!
