#AustralianRules #football evolved in Colonial Melbourne in the mid-19th century. An Aboriginal game known as #marngrook and #Gaelicfootball, played in Ireland, have been cited as inspiration but the game was mainly based on football played in England’s elite public schools. Transported to the parklands of Melbourne, the game was shaped by the vast open spaces and the men who played it.
