Aussie Rules named as the sexiest footy code

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.
