    Bompington - I think this is a deliberate wind-up because every time there's a football thread a rugby fan comes on to tell us how bad football is and how wonderful rugby is.

    why on earth would i want to hang around with a load of fat blokes with cauliflower ears; cracking jokes about bumholes, frightening women and playing soggy biscuit?

    Oh I know that, we're used to lower class oiks trying to poke fun at what they have neither the brains to understand nor the bodies to compete in

    Au contraire mon ami, I know loads of working class men with beer bellies who would be willing to gouge somebody else's eyes. :wink:

    Ahhh, proper rugby. :wink:

    I played a bit of union when I was at school. I was a winger and my abiding memory of rugby union is standing there waiting and getting bored for the 75 minutes out of 80 that the ball was in either a scrum or a ruck. :roll:

    Quite so. I spent saturday night wathinc warrington put 5 tries on Bradford in an exciting if error-prone game. On my return home, my dad (more of a union man) told me that the ball had spent 46 minutes in play in the England V Scotland game. Oh how we laughed.

  • Rugby league is a much fitter, higher tempo, more exciting game, than union

    Yep, and you find yourself counting to 6 for hours afterwards. I enjoy both forms but prefer Union as you'd expect in this part of the world. As for fat blokes, unfortunately this is no longer the case and one of the problems in the game is that everyone is too fit and strong. The other problems are the scrum has become a farce as refs are unable to control it and the laws have resulted in aimless kicking. League's biggest problem is the limited opportunity to get possession off the opposition and it's (generally) predicatable nature. Football's problem is that it's cr@p :lol:

    Football is a gentlemen's game played by thugs and rugby is a thug's game played by gentlemen.

    Not so accurate now that Rugby is no longer an amateur sport.

    The modern take could be;

    (Professional) Football is a game played by rich idiots and rich chavs. Rugby is a game played by freaks of nature.
    Science adjusts it’s beliefs based on what’s observed.
    Faith is the denial of observation so that Belief can be preserved

    It never was accurate. Both sports have their model sportsmen and their animals.

    The main turn off for me, as far as Rugby Union is concerned, is the large amount of total c0ck ends who seem to follow the game. I'm talking about the casual club player with the latent homosexual tendencies who likes to go out with his fellow clubmate on a saturday night, blazered up with 30 or so other monkeys in suits, being obnoxious to anyone who gets in their way in that special upper middle class way; boorish knuckle draggers who are happy to sh1t in a pint glass to prove their manliness to their fellow meathead.

    I find the football hooligan an infinitely more likeable chap.

    A sensible, balanced opinion. :? :shock:
