Off Topic 6 Nations. Proper Rugby.

Minority sport which was the largest crowd of the weekend. If unionmisva minority sport what is league.
The six nations has the highest average attendance of any international team competition.

 

I stepped back because he could keep pointing out numerous examples in every football game which couldn't be done with the rugby.

 

Johnny foreigners.

 

Good of you to take a break from your work to find a rugby player feigning injury. A lot easier to find football ones though.

 

That's the point though. I accept footballers do it, I don't think anybody has denied it wheras you have said that rugby players "don't feign injury". You were wrong, they do. It was never a comparison.

 

In general they don't though.

 

That was not your argument. In general footballers don't.

 

You got there, eventually!

It is far more prevalent at all levels from juniors upwards.

 

I don’t think would or has been argued against.

 

I will give someone a fiver for every time they post an example of a rugby player feigning injury If they will give me a fiver for every one I post of a footballer doing so. They can post ones of both codes of rugby.

 

You'd be rich beyond dreams. However, it doesn't detract from an incorrect assertion that 'they don't feign injury.'
That is all.

Was hoping someone would take me up on it. Fancied a cruise in a penthouse suite.

 

The massive difference ,IMO, between RU and football is respect.

My lad plays union for school and they call the ref sir and that’s only if they are spoken to first. It’s always been that way, it was when I played.

He also plays football on a Sunday and it’s an absolute disgrace. His team played on Sunday, both teams were from the West Hull villages. Proper pansies in other words.

Didn’t stop them arguing with the ref with every decision that went against them and even having digs at one of the parents who was running the line.

I’m sure it wasn’t like that when I played, certainly not at that age.

I’m glad he’s decided not to play football next season because I’m sick to death of listening to it week, week out.

On the other hand I genuinely enjoy watching him play rugby.

 

Exactly Carmine.

 

Jocks are winning ffs

 

Did you notice that disturbing sight in the crowd? Somebody with half and half face paint. Has the world gone mad?

 

I did notice the bottles of lager when he took the conversion right on the touch line.

Bloody hell another try. We're getting smashed.

 

Yes, terrible.

 

England defence is shocking. That's before you even get onto handling errors. Awful from England.
