Did it involve one person trying to run and avoid the catching team, who tries to tackle them, or the runner trying to forcefully break through a line?

Also, love the name Vic Kick. I assume that's a precursor to the Auskick I did for a bit as a kid?

Depends on the numbers but usually there'd be 25% in the middle and 75% trying to run from one side to the other. Everyone taken down gets added to the middle.

It might've been aus kick, I never got into AFL. I remember going a few times and being amazed that kids I went to school with knew all this footy stuff cos their families did.
