Rugby Explained

Sailor Steve · 03-13-13, 11:46 AM

I've never been remotely interested in the game of Rugby, just as I've never been interested in most sports I can't play myself.

Still, it's nice to have the rules explained, or better yet demonstrated, in a fashion that's easy to follow. After watching this video I think I have a better grasp of the game, and in fact wouldn't mind trying my hand at it. As I keep repeating, it's not what you say, it's how to say it.

I'm sure that after viewing this most of you will agree that Rugby is a sport worth watching, at least once.

Thanks for that, Steve. Never followed it myself but I may start now.

That'a my kind of rugby.

Great way to explain the rules.

I can watch it over and over and over... again and again and again...

All I ask is, Can I be the ball?

Or the pitch, I'd be the pitch or the ball or, or, or, anything!

Thanks for the rules. It all makes sense, now. I just may have to watch them again.
