In the post-war era Australia finds it self divded by the
Barassi Line with high post-war immigration forward thinking Australians decide to over come this by combining the best bits of the best three codes, Aussie Rules, Rugby Union and Rugby League. The combination consists of the larger teams and pitches of Aussie Rules along with the
handball method of passing. Rugby Legue contributes it's tradition of professionalism and the
limited tackle rule though it is increased to 12. Everything else is drawn from Rugby Union. This new Combined Football quickly sweeps first Australia and then the rest of Oceania dominated the region by 1975 with all other codes reduced to minor amateur levels. This new code is exported to Britain by Antipodeans on their
OE's and quickly takes the country by storm. The turning point is when
Brain Clough junks Andrew Football as game for wimps and converts to Combined Football.
With the dawn of the cable era Americans finally get a chance to see Combined Football in it's glory. Realising that this codes is far superior to Gridiron they abandon their pads and start to play a mans game. The code sweeps North America during the 80's and all the other leagues disband in despair at collapsing audience figures, though Ice Hockey manages to hang on in Canada.
Hispanic immigrants to the US spread Combined Football to South America during the 90's while the fall of the Berlin Wall see's it take over Eastern Europe while the end of Apartheid sees the Blacks abandon Soccer and the White's Rugby to adopt the combined code. Finally the code sweeps through Europe as fans realise that the Andrex Football is rubbish and played by softies.
As the year 2000 dawns the world is united in it's love of Combined Football.
