AFL Week 4 Review

In a weekend that was meant to contain one tightly contested affair and one lopsided encounter the AFL managed to give us two ... lopsided encounters, quite a disappointing Saturday for anyone that tuned in I'm afraid.

Unfortunately, playing like a Raider meant emulating JaMarcus Russell.

Irish Football Weekend Roundup

Another weekend gone in the Irish American Football Leagues and what a weekend it was! New leaders in both the Shamrock Bowl Conference North and South as well as a shock result in the North coupled with a gutsy performance from the Mullingar Minotaurs in IAFL-1 made the weekend more than interesting.
