What game did you watch ? was it a pro game ? American football is a free for all as you can tackle off the ball. Oh and you got it the wrong way round pansies wear pads.

 

rugby is slowly making its pressence here in the states...same with irish road bolling..lol

 

You cant' tackle off the ball, what game where you watching? How is football a free for all? They run plays and have routes. In rugby the guys pretty much run around throwing the ball at each other hoping not to get groped by the other players. And yea it was a pro game that i watched.

 

Am I right in thinking they can block oppostion players when they dont have the ball? hmmm. Rugby is a highly skilled game and your making it out to be some sort of riot were the players grab each others *****. This shows you have no clue what you are talking about. You should go play the game to better your understanding of it before making it out to be a load of ****.

 

Rugby has the same type of routes and stuff as football. With rugby and the passes while running you have to be precise. If you dont cut right the ball can and will be picked off especially at higher levels of play. Its clockwork. Also most rugby isnt a free for all. What you saw grabbing was probably players rucking which is a way to keep the ball on their side when a player gets tackled. But saying rugby players look like panzies is so far off. Each sport is different in its own way but because one sport wears pads or doesnt doesnt make it less of a sport or make the players pussies. Ive played football and trust me the hits are 10x harder, rugby the hits are hard and their are more of them. Rugby is difficult since your constantly running and taking one hell of a beating.
