A Long Time ago That was Mate. Did you see England's last try v France (I think :? )? Amazing thats what it was. For that youngster anyways. Ran through their whole defence and made the pass the tindall for the try. MAGIC!

played in high school, mostly wing sometimes outside center or fullback...i had to quit in year 11 because in about 5 consecutive weeks, i was concussed (had to miss like 2 weeks after that) then 2 games in a row, I dislocated my finger (absolutely disgusting) then dislocated my shoulder. the doc said if i dislocated my shoulder again i would have to get a reconstruction....no thanks... :?

Yep. Wing or Full back.

And it's Wales all the way on Saturday!!! Hook at outside half will be very telling.

We had for one year a rugby club in middle school, and I loved it. Then the guy who sponsored it left and I never played again :(

It's just not very big over here. But recently I was at a skatepark and they had a women's rugby tournament, and then last weekend I was drivinig through a college campus and they had a big girls team practicing.

Still haven't seen any guys playing though :?

if we can get the ball to hook we should see some nice trys, hes gunnu be good, hes got alot of tallent but we just havent let him use it all, next year will be a good year for wales i hope.
playin rugby iv broken 2 kid noses, our team broke a kids shoulder ( in our defence he had just had surgery on it), in one match our team got 6 of the oppositions player off injured and i helped with 2 of them, god the list goes on, such a rough game, but its just so fun.

u duno wh rugby isnt big in the usa, its much better than amarican football, that takes ages setting up each play and swaping players every 5 mins, its good tho, but takes way to long.

I'm only interested in rugby when Scotland play and only then half hearted, (come on, it's no football is it?).

I dated a girl at uni who played rugby, but she'd never let me watch and quit soon after we started dating (she was getting enough exercise :wink: )

I have signed up for a touch rugby team through work, or since I heard there were gong to be some hot girls playing "Touch -Up Rugby", (that didn't go down too well in the office, but I won't be touching them).

So...you would prefer to see guys bouncing up and down, rolling in the mud, in "scrums"....in stead of women doing that? :roll:


PS. Thread is steaming with testos'!

Can I be first to say HAHAHAHA AHAHAHAHAH AHAHAHAHA HAHAHAHAH AHAHAHAH AHAHAH AHAHAH AHAHA AAHAHAHAH AHAAAAAHAHAHAHAH

(Unlike Bluesnowcone I say what we all think!!)
(The Welsh and the Scottish that is, the Irish too on normal days, but I think they've got other things on their mind)

And before you comment on Scotlands loss, I don't care! Hence there was no singing by me on this thread. Just laughing at others misery. :D

As England have lost, I'm now becoming an Bangladeshi Supporter of the Bangladeshi Rugby Team. But you will be pleased to know I do not know the Bandladeshi National Song.

Yours Sincerely
