Sounds good to me! What's not their fault can generally be attributed to the Kiwis.
The rules of football were codified in England by the Football Association in 1863, and the name association football was coined...
Resulting in the famous Monty Python sketch of Word Association Football...
Down here in Enzed it's Soccer for sure and rugby is rugby.
also in Oz, as well, where there's also footy to contend with?
In Queensland and NSW, 'footy' (or football) = Rugby League, and Rugby Union is 'Rugby'. In all other Australian States 'Footy' refers to Australian Rules Football. Rugby is referred to everywhere as Rugby Union or Rugby to distinguish it from Rugby League. American Football (and Canadian Football which to us is no different and just as silly and woossy a game) is called Gridiron. Throughout Australia the world game is known as Soccer, and we only take an interest in it when Australia is in the World Cup or some other international contest.
