Are any of you following this? The game last night was tremendous 10 tries by our men and all of them good ones. Good luck to them and hopefully they will win the test series.

COME ON LIONS

I'm afraid I find rugby a bit too brutal for me. When my two eldest were at Kent College I couldn't go to the games just in case they got hurt.

Oh come on Silverpixie, it is a game which I think is more skillful than football, I bet you watch that.

I prefer rugby, either code, over football.

You will probably find more people get hurt playing football than rugby.

Ah! Rugby football....a game played by men with an odd shaped ball.

I don`t `do` supporting or team games but out of them all Rugby is the one that I can watch for a while. I also like that there seems to still be some sportsmanship in the game and its not all about the money.

However, I would rather have a game of golf....which can be dangerous depending what other dipstick is on the course...but I still cannot sit and watch golf as much as I like playing it.

Anyway, all that hugging and sharing the showers in rugby & football worries me......

exactly what I meant!!

Go to a rugby match a twickenham and afterwards everybody is sitting around the car park drinking and eating and the kids are included too.

Mind you, rugby has been referred to as legalised thuggery!!
