[QUOTE="Welsh Exile, post: 1164365, member: 82670"] It's all subjective isnt it but I think, generally, people want to see fast moving sports played with high levels of skill. Rugby doesn't really offer anything in that department. It's a slow game, with loads of rules, a bit of skill but still ultimately a game of big men smashing other big men. Football is the polar opposite. Ball is always in play, it's fast moving, high level of skill and you'll generally see a few goals a game as well as not having a million rules to get used to. As I say, though, it's all subjective and rugby will always have my heart but looking at it from someone who isn't that into sport but looking to get into a team game and you show them a game of rugby and a game of football and ask them what looks like more fun they'll go football 9 times out of 10.
