Union is absolute dog turd! League is an awesome sport though, love watching Rugby League, it flows a lot more and the overall play is much better, Union's on par with american Football in my opinion, absolute crap!

Prefer american football, once you get into it it's great.

International Rugby union is pretty good too.

That said... I can't stand Premiership rugby. Boring, stodgy, attrition based football. The Celtic League & France Top 14 totally outclass it - as evidenced by the qualifiers for the knock out stages of the Heineken Cup.

The Heineken Cup, incidentally, is one of the greatest competitions around. It's even outshining the Six Nations these days and I never dreamt that I'd be saying that.


Generally with this post 100% but there's still something a bit magical about the 6 Nations
 
This current England team must be the most boring team ever assembled.
Watching them limping over the finishing line against a clueless Italian side was simply painful to watch.
At least the other countries try to score tries.
England seem content to play for penalties.
Why folk flock to Twickenham to witness this dross is beyond me.

You must find the adverts fun to watch.
what an appalling sport that is. I switched on the super bowl for 20 minutes and saw all of 1.30 minute of play which consisted of a tackle and someone throwing the ball into no mans land.

Spoken like a typical person who didn't bother giving it a change past the first stoppage. Love the sport.
 
I'm not a domestic RU fan but will always watch 6 Nations and Rugby World Cup

Chalk and cheese with Footie but will happily watch both.

Wow,just tried watching sale sharks on the box,what a terrible sport. How can anyone ever slag footy of!!!sooner watch tennis.
Rugby Yawnion, sorry, Union is not a good sport.

Rugby league, however, is a fantastic sport. It's the best sport to play on the planet. I enjoyed playing RL much more than footy. I got much more of a physical fulfilment from it, playing footy left me feeling like I hadn't worked hard enough or exherted myself into it enough even if I'd ran around like a loon.

Spectator-wise, RL is a great sport too. Fast, furious, fair...great sport!

It has amazed me how they've somehow cobbled 2 wins together... they will be found out big time very soon ......
 
It strikes me as hard to believe that people can only like 1 sport. I love all sports watching and playing. Football will always be my first choice sport but its to understand why people cant respect or understand the skill involved to play other sports
