How many of you play rugby? Or how many of you know how it works? I feel alone on here whenever I talk about it, so I finally decided to pay a trip to this forum.

Discuss.

I saw a game on the television a while back, and I thought it was okay. It was very similar to football, but I only saw one game so I can't make a decision on it.

I played in college on a club team and really miss it now that I've graduated. There are a couple teams in the area, but my work schedule conflicts with no way to reconcile it. Also I got broken enough in the 4 years I played before that I'm prone to re-injury that would significantly impact my ability to work or do other recreation that I like. So I guess the time has passed to actually play. It was awesome while it lasted.

But I do love to watch it still, and every once in a while they broadcast a match on TV and I try to catch it. Happy to talk rugby or explain things.

Am a fan of both codes, Union wise am fan of The Red Dragons (the Wales national team & current Six Nations and Grand Slam winners ) as am half Welsh. I have a family friend who use to coach boy's school union, plus he had three international caps of Scotland.

League wise am a fan of The Saints (St Helens RLFC), I live close to a part of the north west england that is mad on rugby league. :wink:

I used to play rugby, but more happy to be an armchair spectator these days.

Lock is definitely where all the cool kids play, which is why I played there and not because I was slow and couldn't pass :wink:

It's Wales all the way for me, although I also like to watch the All Blacks play.

I play as a hooker or flanker (prefer flanker, but will play hooker if needed) for a union club in my area. It is the best sport I have ever encountered. I love everything about it.
