As footy finals fever sweeps the nation, Australia's largest online dating site, RSVP has found that women are more attracted to Australia Rules Football players than to Rugby League players.
When it came to the age-old rivalry between AFL and NRL, RSVP's female members have a clear favourite with more than 64% of respondents declaring the AFL boys the sexier code.
The survey results prove that Australians are clearly a highly passionate and sport obsessed nation, singles declared a first date (56%) was only slightly more nerve racking than watching their beloved team fight it out for a Grand Final (44%).
Furthermore, 48% classified themselves to be 'footy tragics' in admitting they would choose watching their team in a grand final over a first date.
Lija Jarvis, RSVP spokesperson, said "With so many singles now dating online, its more apparent than ever that shared interests are key in searching and ultimately connecting with a potential partner.
