[15]. This was the first of several "kickabouts" held that year

involving members of the Melbourne Cricket Club, including Wills, Bryant, W. J. Hammersley and J. B. Thompson. Trees were used as goalposts and play typically lasted an entire afternoon. Without an agreed upon code of laws, some players were guided by rules they had learned in the British Isles, "others by no rules at all". [18]. This law was reinforced by the Athletic Sports Committee (ASC), which ran a variation of the Challenge Cup in 1865 66. [35]. Born in Australia, Wills played a nascent form of rugby football whilst a pupil at Rugby School in England, and returned to his homeland a star athlete and cricketer. His letter is regarded by many historians as giving impetus for the development of a new code of football today known as Australian football. [16]. The rules were distributed throughout the colony; Thompson in particular did much to promote the new code in his capacity as a journalist. [30].

Australian football has the highest spectator attendance and television viewership of all sports in Australia, [6]. Australia's first recruitment poster, published in 1915, questions the public's commitment to Australian football, rather than the war. However, cricket authorities frequently prohibited football on their grounds until the 1870s, when they saw an opportunity to capitalise on the sport's growing popularity. Football gradually adapted to an ovalshaped field, and most grounds in Victoria expanded to accommodate the dual purpose a situation that continues to this day. [41]. The sport reached Queensland as early as 1866, and experienced a period of dominance there, [48]. Football became organised in South Australia in 1860 with the formation of the Adelaide Football Club, the oldest football club in Australia outside Victoria. [42]. The earliest such match, held in St Kilda on 15 June, was between Melbourne

Grammar and St Kilda Grammar. [14]. Another theory, first proposed in 1983, posits that Wills, having grown up amongst Aborigines in Victoria, may have seen or played the Aboriginal game of Marn Grook, and incorporated some of its features into early Australian football. The evidence for this is only circumstantial, and according to biographer Greg de Moore's research, Wills was "almost solely influenced by his experience at Rugby School". [24].

[43]. Australian football's date of codification predates that of any other major football code, including soccer (codified in 1863) and rugby union (codified in 1871). This law was reinforced by the Athletic Sports Committee (ASC), which ran a variation of the Challenge Cup in 1865 66. [35].

[41]. an influential pioneer who took up football in 1859 at the invitation of Wills, his cousin. [38]. Australian football has the highest spectator attendance and television viewership of all sports in Australia, [6]. Wills argued that the turf of cricket fields would benefit from being trampled upon by footballers in winter, [40]. Now known as Australasian rules or Australian rules, it became the first football code to develop mass spectator appeal, [46].

Likewise, Tasmanian clubs quarrelled over different rules until they adopted a slightly modified version of the Victorian game in 1879.

The South Australian Football Association (SAFA), the sport's first governing body, formed on 30 April 1877, firmly establishing the Victorian rules as the preferred code in that colony.

When converting patients from fixed ratio opioid/nonopioid drug regimens a decision should be made whether or not to continue the non-opioid analgesic. If a decision is made to discontinue the use of nonopioid analgesic, it may be necessary to titrate the dose of ROXICODONE in response to the level of analgesia and adverse effects afforded by the dosing regimen. If the non-opioid regimen is continued as a separate single entity agent, the starting dose ROXICODONE should be based upon the most recent dose of opioid as a baseline for further titration of oxycodone. Incremental increases should be gauged according to side effects to an acceptable level of analgesia. ROXICODONE contains

This law was reinforced by the Athletic Sports Committee (ASC), which ran a variation of the Challenge Cup in 1865 66. [35]. The sport's origins can be traced to football matches played in Melbourne, Victoria in 1858, inspired by English public school football games. Seeking to develop a game more suited to adults and Australian conditions, the Melbourne Football Club published the first laws of Australian football in May 1859, making it the oldest of the world's major football codes. [4]. Later joined by Collingwood and St Kilda, the clubs formed the Victorian Football League (VFL), which held its inaugural season in 1897. The VFL's popularity grew rapidly as it made several innovations, such as instituting a finals system, reducing teams from 20 to 18 players, and introducing the behind as a score. [51]. New rules such as holding the ball led to a "golden era" of fast, long-kicking and

high-marking football in the 1880s, a time which also saw the rise of professionalism, particularly in Victoria and Western Australia (where the code took hold during the colony's gold rushes ), and players such as George Coulthard achieve superstardom. [47]. or simply called Aussie rules, football or footy, is a contact sport played between two teams of eighteen players on an oval-shaped field, often a modified cricket ground. Points are scored by kicking the oval-shaped ball between the goal posts (worth six points) or behind posts (worth one point). If scores are level at the end of finals matches (including the grand final ), extra time is required to determine the winner. Engraving of the first intercolonial football match between Victoria and South Australia at the East Melbourne Cricket Ground, 1879. This was the first of several "kickabouts" held that year involving members of the Melbourne Cricket Club, including Wills, Bryant, W. J. Hammersley and J. B. Thompson. Trees were used as goalposts and play typically lasted an entire afternoon. Without an agreed upon code of laws, some players were guided by rules they had learned in the British Isles, "others by no rules at all". [18]. However, cricket authorities frequently prohibited football on their grounds until the 1870s, when they saw an opportunity to capitalise on the sport's growing popularity. Football gradually adapted to an oval-shaped field, and most grounds in Victoria expanded to accommodate the dual purpose a situation that continues to this day. [41]. Possession of the ball is in dispute at all times except when a free kick or mark is paid. Players can tackle using their hands or use their whole body to obstruct opponents. Dangerous physical contact (such as pushing an opponent in the back ), interference when marking and deliberately slowing the play are discouraged with free kicks, distance penalties or suspension for a certain number of matches, depending on the seriousness of the infringement. The game features frequent physical contests, spectacular marking, fast movement of both players and the ball and high scoring. Following Melbourne's lead, Geelong and Melbourne University also formed football clubs in 1859. [32]. With input from other clubs, the rules

underwent several minor revisions, establishing a uniform code known as "Victorian rules". [36]. Another theory, first proposed in 1983, posits that Wills, having grown up amongst Aborigines in Victoria, may have seen or played the Aboriginal game of Marn Grook, and incorporated some of its features into early Australian football. The evidence for this is only circumstantial, and according to biographer Greg de Moore's research, Wills was "almost solely influenced by his experience at Rugby School". [24]. There is no archival evidence in favour of a Gaelic influence, and the style of play shared between the two modern codes was evident in Australia long before the Irish game evolved in a similar direction. [22]. Further information: Laws of Australian rules football Melbourne Rules of 1859. The club's stated aim was to create a simple code that was suited to the hard playing surfaces around Melbourne, and to eliminate the roughest aspects of English school games such as "hacking" (shinkicking) in Rugby School football to lessen the chance of injuries to working men. [27]. Richmond and University joined the VFL in 1908, and by 1925, with the addition of Hawthorn, Footscray and North Melbourne, it had become the preeminent league in the country and would take a leading role in many aspects of the sport.
