Rugby
 

one of the least talked about sports o nthe forum, does anyone play here? i play for the school team. as a flanker cool: rock:

I used to be a hooker at school I got paid £5 an hour

never played it. I live in Pennsylvania so we don't get exposed to Rugby around here. I'd like to try it out though sometime.

Almost every PA college has a rugby team. All i know about my school's team is that they could drink anyone under the table.

i'd get killed.

All i have to say is, it has never really been "forced" upon us as a sport. You'd have to go elsewhere to play the sport which requires initiative which half of teenagers don't have.

wow, you are really impressing a lot of women right about now. rolleyes:

does rugby actually take skill? or just run and knock over everyone

yeah, i'd have to agree with you. Stick to your "Online Fantasy Hockey League"

Ja das stimmt!

My uncle played rugby in college, in PA, I forget which one.

well yes and no.
you have to be in shape (lots of running). you need to be able to throw, make good tackles, see plays before they happen, and be stratigiec.
but most important is strength, and playing as a team. rugby isnt a sport that your "born good" you need to learn it. and expierince

im gonna get flamed but, ill stick to soccer

oOo:

you have your opinions. you should try it though. if your school is having a team, go to one of the practices and watch. its great for getting in good shape and releving stress

yeah ive watched it on tv a couple times, and yeah u need to be in hella good shape for that cuz some of the shots they take, and some of those big asses can run like the wind

since the hockey season was over this year, i tried out for my school's rugby team and i made it..i played for it for about 4 weeks but then quit because i joined the soccer team when it started up and i couldnt play both. i like rugby but soccer and hockey are my favorite sports to play.

ill stick to lacrosse...and soccer...and hockey...but right now lacrosse...lacrosse








lacrosse

I would but my school doesn't support rugby like my old highschool did sadly. : (. I was offred a spot on a local Burlington Team thugh, never took them up on it instead I decided to work full time baker at Timmy's for a summer :)

do you......."RIP" people when youp lay lacrosse ??"???? biggrin:

Rugga ragga
 

Cricket takes alot of skill, I used to play it at school, its also alot of fun.

As for Rugby, used to play for about 6 years for my local town, never got seriously injured thankfully. It does require skill and is alot tougher than american football ie; no padding, helmets, etc but most people know that.
Me and Eight Ace used to tackle each other all the time, mostly when the ball was nowhere near......*blushes*

Fluffy, how did you get paid for playing for your school? eek:
