People are organising and playing Australian football in Iceland. Of course they are.
Write. From the Heart.

Iceland. Superb.
Love this from Mr Ásgeirsson:
“I think [Aussie Rules] suits our mentality. We have long, hard winters here and during the summer we can go and run each other to the ground,”
“It suits our nature and our stature. We have a tall, big population so I think it suits us very nicely.”
Imagination unlocking doors.
