Do we?
I seem to remember a largely summer-based sport called "cricket".
Did we copy them in 95/96? |

No we didn't. We [i switched [/ito summer. Modern cricket was always a summer sport. It never had to think about switching. |

Some Irish Union troll had something to say about this today at another site saying the French would never move to summer because no Rugby team could play at that time.
I asked him if he had heard of Les Catalans Dragons ......... no reply yet!

Football was invented so they had something to do during the cricket off season and rugby came from football, that is the only reason why football and rugby was played in winter. Don't you know your history? |

To be fair, it is the accepted history of how AFL came in to being:
Quote ="afl.com.au"
In 1857, Tom Wills, one of the founders of Australian Football, returned to Australia after schooling in England where he was football captain of Rugby School and a brilliant cricketer. Initially, he advocated the winter game of football as a way of keeping cricketers fit during off-season.
The new game was devised by Wills, his cousin H.C.A. Harrison, W.J. Hammersley and J.B. Thompson.'"
I'm not entirely sure that's how Association Football and Rugby Football came in to being though  |
