I get a bit fed up of hearing how much more "honourable" rugby is than the round ball version

Just because the brain damage leaves them too weak in the head to cheat, surely? This isn't really a matter of debate, is it?

No responses? I'm not being provocative enough, I see.

But surely it depends upon which rugby one plays?

There is the fine, robust game played by gentlemen, and the sordid mud-scrambling played in the North.




In reality, I don't care. Too old to play and too easily bored to watch. - FSN

I can't believe that cheating goes on at the original Rugby. I would believe it happens at the new comprehensive there though
