Played today in PE. Seeing as I missed the last lesson as I was off ill and they didn't tell me they were starting Rugby next lesson, I turned up with a White Polo-shirt and trainers. Not good.

So, after putting on a shirt from the 'Box of doom' we set about two teams and in the drizzle rain we played.

I used to play, for three years, and I have a good knowledge of the game. But by Christ is it tougher.

I took the role of 'running from deep' and got battered several times. Also got threw in the air by two players and landed in a patch of mud. Mmmm...nice.

But I scored 3 tries, because I'm good. Well, more like a ran toward the 'not-so-good' and 'small' players who couldn't tackle me. Bless them.

But since I stopped playing, Rugby has got a much more brutal game. It's amazing what two years absent from a sport does to you.

And now I sit here mud-stained. Better get in that shower quickly.

Rugby - no! Its just egg chasing. A poor, poor game. But in a weird twist of fate, probably the only game that the English are any good at. Still a poor game though.

I like Rugby. It's a great game.

Plus, living in Wales, it's more popular than football. Many football clubs have folded in South Wales because the kids have gone to play Rugby.

Hurts like hell when you bang your nose though :(

Lol.

If you women want a real man, choose a Rugby boy. None of these poncy 'Oooo I might spoil my hair' footballers.

Of course typical ladies view. :) As legs are very important.

And rugby men are more tougher than the weakings that play soccer.

Preferred American Football to Rugby after playing both, can absolutely drill players into the ground in Gridiron, especially when the wide receiver is coming down from a catch. WHAM-O!!!! :-D

Rugby's a nutters game. There isn't that much skill to it. You just either have to be big & have no fear or fast as lightening. Technically football is much more of a skilled sport.
