HISTORY -
For the past 30 years football contests have occurred between Australia and Ireland using a variety of "hybrid" rules.
In 1998 an "International Rules" series was developed and a 4 year commitment made to play an annual series between the 2 different codes, Australian Rules Football and Gaelic football.
The first of the modern series was played in Ireland in 1998, with the return series in Australia in 1999. more...
RANKINGS -
The results of the International Rules Series are displayed below along with the current rankings.
There shoud, in my opinion, also be teams from the US and the UK in this annual series. Just to constantly remind our administrators that this would be a good thing, I have included the USA and UK on my rankings table.
