Thanks!

But you agree that seeing as we invented it and called it football, you shouldnt just call it 'sawker'

its called soccer in australia and america and other countrys to avoid confusion.

seeing that the National Rugby League is the main sport in australia, and the National Football League is the main sport in the US, it is easier to call an adopted sport soccer rather than having 2 games called football.

did that make sense?
