That's because he can't put together a logical argument to what I post.

LMMFAO, Tell you what, When Savicki quits acting like a moron, I'll leave him alone.

I think you'd better look in the mirror and reassess that statement.

I've played rugby for more than a few years.

I still can't get passed the whole idea of a ruck.

A ruck is where a loose ball is battled for by grappling with your teammates to move the opposition's teammates so you can kick the ball back to your scrum-half.

It just doesn't make sense to me. To me, Football and its rules seem more appropriate with a loose ball being fought for in any way imaginable. The idea that grown men would grapple one another when the fucking ball is right there in front of them seems quite gay.

However, I would never say these things to a rugby player under any circumstances.

The ball should go through the hooker's legs and then the half-back should pass it out to the backs.

The new term they use now is called "Truck and Trailer.

I played right wing for a number of years,cos I was fast and had good hand and ball skills.

i use to play at high school a sort of league/union mix. its a good game. except when the guys in the 1st 15 decided that i was a good scrawny tackle bag.
i hate how americans see it as a barbaric sport and certain shows depict it totaly wrong.

i bet 805 of americans wouldnt even know they had a national team. and that when theres a world cup, more teams from other countries actually participate.

2007 perdiction: all blacks are looking strong so far with the super 14 teams and the crusaders winning. England will fail if wilkinson is still out.

I played inside center and some fullback.

I can't imagine getting involved in the scrum though. Not my idea of a healthy Saturday afternoon.

Fullback was cool because you could really line someone up, but you looked like a fool if you missed.

I could really kick the shit out of the ball so sometimes I would kick it out of bounds and we would line up 60 yards downfield.

Amen on The AllBlacks.

The Kiwi's are leading the way when it comes to Super 14 Rugby.

The Aucklnad Blues let me down again.

It's played alot, in high schools and club teams.

Whenever I watch international games, Canada just looks too small, and way overmatched.

Depressing is the word. Kind of like Italy playing Canada in hockey:D

Maybe we should send a few Kiwi boys over there to help out.

Canada will be stronger when they get more Tough Teams to play.I mean that in a nice way too.

I'm sure they still have a Seven's Team playing?
