The age old sporting debate resolved... finally!

Recommended Posts

I still love football. That was just two teams making a mockery of it in the final, i hated seeing the trophy going to any of them diving idiots.

But lets face it, Rugby does kick serious arse
1338

People aint made of nothin' but water and shit.

Until morale improves, the beatings will continue.

Yep, footballs for girls, real men play rugby.B|

'Someone once said that Football is a Gentlemans game played by Thugs and Rugby is a Thugs game played by gentlemen.'

I used to play Rugby did so for for years without incident, I then played football once! Only once! As a locla team was short and I broke my leg. Does that make me a puff?

Two of the three voices in my head agree with you. It might actually be unanimous but voice three only speaks Welsh.

Id rather go up against a rugby player than an NFL tackle

maybe its just the video, but none of those rugby players look like they weigh more than 200-210 lbs

Then you have people like Brian Urlacher 6'4" and 260 lbs of twist you like a pretzel muscle.

Some do. One of the current England forwards weighs 19 1/2 stone! (Nearly 280lbs)

Of course, rugby players need to be fit enough to run around the field for the full 80 mins, not wander on for 1 play and then back on the bench for a rest!
Do you want to have an ideagasm?

Rugby players don't wear body armor either.

Soccer - a game for gentlemen played by hooligans,
Rugby - a game for hooligans played by gentlemen,
Hockey - a game for hooligans played by hooligans.
Lacrosse - a game for hooligans played by schoolgirls.
