European Legion and Titans squads named for AIS/AFL academy tour

Great to see one of these matches being played outside the UK. It can only be a good thing for footy in France especially after France's success at IC11. Keep up the great publicity generated by their success. Still, I think Denmark and/or Germany should have been seriously considered.

Denmark being the oldest, non-English speaking league and having a junior program running for many, many years is a MUST for at least one game next year. Germany has been around well over 10 years and I believe their junior program is on the up. Actually, Sweden too are deserving.

Lets face it, these matches are(or at least should be)about promoting Aussie Rules just as much as finding potential players for AFL Teams and drawing big crowds of ex-pat Aussies in to watch.

Maybe you should run a poll, Brett. Which country/s should get one/each of these matches next year?

Would be interesting to see what the European footy community think?
