I think there is a league in Victoria that is 16 on the field. With the massive increase in fitness and running in the game these days, with ugly flooding tactics, I actually think 16 per side would be better. The reason Aussie Rules isn't Rugby Union is that the rules have been changed continually for 150 years to ensure it remains an attractive sport. Let's face it, how often does a team line up and stay with 2 forward pockets as well as a full forward? But that's a whole different debate.

The VFA played 16-a-side for a while didn't they? Used to name the squad without anyone on the wings... When I played juniors it'd quite often be 15-a-side (no wings, no ruck-rover).
