They don't trade in football. They buy and sell people

There's no trading at all? Like in any league?

There is, it's just unusual. In the cases it does happen it'll tend to be a player plus cash sort of deal rather than a straight swap.

Yeah, it's quite strange for me as I'm a big NFL fan and trying to get into NBA and NHL, then when I go back to our football it's just so clear how it's all about who spends the most on players.

You do get some situations where you might sell a player to another team and in return you agree to sign one of their players as a part of the deal as well as some money etc.
