Muddy funster 0 Posted February 28, 2011 Chopsy! Wash your mouth out with soap! Rugby is a great game. It''s a "put-your-body-on-the-line" game which can only be enjoyed if you understand the impact of the tackles and the level of fitness required to play. You have got to have respect for the players who play it. When you''ve played it, you have more respect for what goes on in the game. Try (no pun intended) watching England''s next game in the 6 Nations, it should be a belter.At the very least, you can appreciate that we beat the French and they had just said that they "hate" us before the match. That''s got to be worth not hating the sport! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It certainly appears to me that having as much weight as possible is also a major factor in certain quarters. [:D] Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Muddy funster 0 Posted February 28, 2011 Once upon a time I think that could well have been true. The modern game of Rugby means that players like that wouldn''t get past half time. Take a look at Rugby 7''s if you want to see fitness levels. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I can watch a try being scored and think "yeah, that was quite good" but it''s nothing to the thrill I get when I see something like Crofts''s second goal against Barnsley, or Arsenal''s breakaway goal against Barcelona.
