Afl players mainly wear gloves because they could get some more grip on the ball

No! very rarely... I believe it commenced as cricket players, where only the keeper or the batsmen wear gloves. A few may wear them on very cold nights, but otherwise, they are rarely worn; they would detract from ball-grip, which is absolutely crucial in the Australian football game.

You can. NFL players can wear any glove they want but they have to have an NfL shield on it.
Because when the catcher, catches the ball it protects his or her hand because the ball is very very very hard! -ThankYou!
The gloves help provide grip on the ball, especially in wet weather.
