Carson 0 Report post Posted May 2, 2008 Well, I come from New Zealand. Every single person born in New Zealand has played rugby Of course, it's our national sport. I used to play rugby. I live in a small town but we have at least 10 teams. I played for my area of town, and we were pretty good. I was a wing, but our team had the fastest players around. I had to stop playing because I broke my leg. One player tackled my and held me upright next to the try line(i was a wing), so another player tried to get my over the touch line in a tackle, so my foot remained planted while my body was forced away. Then crack. And in rugby, they run as fast and as hard as they can. So that forced me to give it up. I watch rugby all the time. Always watch the All Blacks(our test team). Rugby is always on New Zealand TV anyway. In fact we are so big on rugby, six months after losing the word cup, the rugby union publicly apologized for losing it.

arnz 0 Report post Posted May 19, 2008 Rugby is a fairly big sport which does get big crowds in the traditional strongholds of the UK nations (England, Wales, etc) and New Zealand, and a fair bit of international following, although not as popular as soccer. Have to say, aint a fan of how some of the teams play with the constant penalty kicking and so forth (England). Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I also like to watch it, and with the South Africa tour coming up soon, it is a pretty exciting time. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
