The world plays Rugby but that includes America too as my University has won 13 of the past 14 NCAA championships and my cousin is on a Rugby team that sports international players. However, is Rugby a mainstream sport in America? No it is not and that is where you would be correct. In terms of how the game is played, Rugby is like football without protection (or footbal is rugby with protection). However, because the way football is played, you need protection as you have 11 guys going after 1 person whereas in Rugby, not everyone goes after the person with the ball. |

Rugby and American football are very different. I have played both games at my school and i find grate differences between the two. Personally i prefer Rugby. |

Rugby is totally different from American football. American football players wear way too much protection and rugby players don't wear any shoulder pads and other protection. You definitely have a greater chance of getting injured in rugby than American football. To me, the only similarities between the two is the shape of the ball and the goal post. I should try playing rugby someday and hopefully kick some major ass. (edited by Ruby Weapon 7 on 04-21-04 04:53 AM) |

I hope I'm not flamed for this... GTo begin with Rugby is English, I should know most of my family comes from the town where it was invented (called, "Rugby", unsurprisingly). American football is like a spiritual succcessor of Rugby League, only I find the constant "Stop Start" play of A.F too distruptive for me, Rugby has more flow to is, especially Union. |
