Because it's a different sport
A Steeden football is used in Rugby League; a Gilbert football is used in Rugby Union and a Sherrin football is used in Australian Rules Football (AFL).The Steeden football and Gilbert football are almost identical, such that goalkickers from the two rugby codes have had kick offs from different positions on the field, with League winning each time.AFL is the oldest codified and registered game in the world. The Sherrin football is marginally different because AFL is a kicking game with players required to bounce the oval football when running like in basketball, and they "fly" for a mark like in Union but they are usually on their own.

it started 1823 in England in a town called Rugby, Warwickshire when playing football a boy picked up the ball and ran forward with it instead of retreating as the rules of football required at that time. The idea of running at the opponent caught on and more students did the same. As these people left the school and went to university etc they took he concept with them. This increased to players and soon the game became formalised
