No padding or helmets.... just real men 8)

American football is a real sport...even with the pads and helmets.

Your point?

Most rugby players wear some sort of padding (though limited) these days though. Actually since shoulder pads have been allowed without having to have a doctors consent, injuries have went up as players go into tackles much harder than they used to because they think the foam protection they wear will save them from injury ::)

Rugby is #1
-
Played one year for my college...used to be d4. now i think we're close to being in d1.
one of the best sports there is to play because there's so much focus on working together. no way will one man score by himself without everyone else taking a hit. i've always wanted to follow it but i don't know too much about rugby leagues. anyone else?

Rugby league is a spin off from Rugby union as in the early 1900's "union" was an amatuer sport.
Players of union were getting injured playing and as a result losing the ability to earn money to support their families, so there was a splinter off from union and league (professional game) was born.

I played centre for 10 minutes in my final game when I was at school...I had spent 3 years saying i should be playing centre instead of hooker...went on a crash ball and got absolutely creamed...one dead leg later...my school's rugby career ended in shame :-[

All Blacks! I Love the sport played a little in Wanganui about 20 years ago.
-
I got this huge All Blacks flag with the haka on it and the Kiwi flag from the New Zealanders we knew in Aghanistan..I hung in my garage next to my Patriots flag. All we watched was All blacks video's while i was in school so I guess their my team.

Great game this morning (I'm in Ireland) between the Brumbies and the Crusaders, no tries but a really intense, hard game.
-
i only played rugby so i could touch my fellow teamates genitlas from my executive position of second row forward.....great times, rugby is a mentality and not just a sport, tho watching club rugby as a apposed to international rugby isnt the same thing, club rugby can be pretty poor standard especially in england, exceptions for rugby league as thats 100 hundred miles an hour adrenaline

Where abouts in Ireland are you? I was playing down in Galway earlier this year and had a couple of people from the Connacht team having a look at me but sprained my ankel badly tho so that was the end of that :(

Cronulla havn't been the same since E.T. left :'( Now that was a player, and a true club man!
In New Zealand all we have is the All Blacks! No one cares about anything else.... when we have lost at the last few world cup's the country goes into mourning and an economic recession happens.
Your Maaaaa - being put on the block and having 15 musclebears drill you is not playing to a high standard ::)

There are enough untalented New Zealanders in Ireland making money because of their accents, we don't need another one :P
Where you playing for Galwegians then? I live in Ulster...haven't played much rugby recently due to a back injury.

I met E.T last Wednesday at Syd Airport, I was comming home and he was flying out.. I walked up to him and said "E.T..You're a legend, I'm a big fan" and he responded.. "sheesh thanks buddy, I thought for a second you were a prop I played against, you had me worried when you came up"..

Yep Galwegians were who I was with, I met this guy on the piss and as soon as I said I was from NZ he said I gotta play in his rugby team.... so I turned up and expected a light social run around but it was a bit more than that :o Your right about the untalented NZr's..... I watch Christian Cullen and its almost a disgrace :( He's a shadow of what he used to be.

Did you play against Dungannon or any of the Ulster teams, Ballymena or Belfast Harlequins? I know a few people who play for those teams.

I only played one game and had about 3,000 practices ;D Had 2 games called off due to extreme weather (hail and snow, if it were in NZ we still would have played 8)) Just played a fairly local team, not even sure who they were....

I understand his comment being a one of those prop bastards myself.... he should worry, he's done damage in his days, I'm sure there are some pissed off bloaks that wouldn't mind finding him alone in a dark alley.
BTW...who won the game this last weekend? I didn't catch it...

ahaha there's some characters on here...
In rugby all I have to support are the Salford reds, I'm not much of a glory seeker like you bitches!
Played this shit all the way through school with many guys which are now pros for st helens, wigan and bradford.

Great game ;D.This year is our year.
Results so far in the tri nations
All Blacks 26-21 over the Boks in durban,was looking like the Boks had us at 21-9 but the ABs starting moving the ball around and taking quick lineouts ,ran the bigger and less agile Bok pack off their feet and totally dominated the last 20 mins.Great win because the last 3/4 years we have struggled over there.
Australia 20-15 over the ABs in melbourne.1 week later .Not enough time to recover from the hell game a week earlier.We looked like we were cruising at 15-6 up but the boys ran out of steam.Stirling Mortlock carved up our makeshift midfield(mauger and macallister at 13 missed a lot of tackles )Mortlock set up the winning try which annoyed me.The Wallabies are a dangerous team,maybe we made the mistake of underestimating how good they are.Gregan and Larkham still have it and will hurt any team.I think the Aussie scrum still sucks but the ref was strange.Gregan is a master at duping the ref.Not putting the ball in while his team is getting pushed back at engagement is a freekick but the ref was in his pocket.
ABs 33 Bok b team 6.
Actually was a crap game until last 15 mins where the Abs ran in 3 tries.Our backline dropped a lot of pill,was frustrating to watch.Jake White resting the top 20 players makes a mockery of test rugby,but his b team sure know how to tackle.The defense of the Boks was very hard to break until Henry brought on fresh legs.I think our forward pack is very strong apart from the odd shonky lineout.Our loosies are awesome,our scrum is the best,but the rotation policy is hurting the cohesiveness of our backline.We are favourites for the World Cup and so it should be.But the Boks and Aussies can beat us.
Tommorow the Wallabies come to eden park where the Abs havent lost at home since 2003 and havent lost at eden park since 1994.
My prediction
PAIN. ;D

the Last Tri-Nations game is this today correct? (Saturday your time) Australia vs. Blacks right?

PAIN. ;D
Like this kind of pain? ;D

Rugby League is the best spectator sport in the world in my opinion, just none stop action for 80 minutes, fighting, big hits, who could want more. Im lucky enough (or unlucky whichever way you look at it, its a sh ithole around here :)), to live right in the middle of manchester and liverpool which means saints, wigan, warrington, widnes all within a 10-15 minute drive

Yeah League rocks.I remember Chariots Offiah,a speed machine.Quickest thing on a footy field that i have seen.

I use to to play it, great sport. Does Rugby remind anyone of playing smeer the queer?

Yes - i was a widnes season ticket holder when offiah was at his quickest - gotta be one of the quickest none track athletes ever. Couldnt tackle for toffee though !! :-\. Great days, I was there when we beat Canberra at Old trafford in front of 40,000 people, a far cry from where Widnes are today unfortunately !! :'(

sure do..practice starts this thursday night...

Ours started last week...tuesdays and thursdays baby...woooohoooooo!!!!!
I love this part of the season when new young guys swagger onto the field to "try out" with all their shit talking and cock swinging just to that I can make them taste test the PH of the field soil.
