what happens if you are out of the scoring circle and you kick the ball passed your teammate and it bounces through the goal. Do you get points. I am sure some of these guys can kick pretty far.

If no one touches it from when you kick you can score 6 point goal if it goes through the middle posts. Even if it bounces. If it gets touched by anyone it will still score but only a behind 1 point same as going through the outside posts

What's the point of the circle then? I thought they had to be in that circle in order to score.

That is mainly to show the goal is 50 meters from that line. Known as the 50m arch or 50m line .
The starting position is only since 2019 or so

Ok. I see. So you don't need to be within that boundary to score. Kind of like basketball. You can shoot it from beyond halfcourt if you want but it's probably a bad idea unless you have 1 second left on the clock and are desperate.

Correct we also have a shot clock from a set shot on goal so you can’t stuff around to long
