Australian Football Makes Run at Europe: The first European Championships of Australian Football take place this weekend in Denmark and Sweden. Teams from eight countries will participate. Ireland, which has been playing for 10 years and has 250 athletes, is the favorite. "Unlike most team sports, it's a competition Ireland have a genuine chance of winning," reports JOE.ie, "the website for Irish men."
