[QUOTE="Bullitt, post: 158151"] Exactly :cheers: [/b][/quote] William Webb Ellis was English. I thought the English didn't know how to run with the ball? [/b][/quote] As time passes situations usually don't stay constant...time has passed and it seems the running in English rugby has not remained constant.... [/b][/quote] Oh, I see. And you also believe the myth that a public schoolboy showed a fine disregard for poofball, caught a high ball and ran with it to invent the game also? Bless The why do we watch this crap then? It is suppose to be a spectacle, why else would people pay so much coin to go and watch it live? I wonder, 'cos it's actually suppose to be a spectator sport, hence it should be fast and free flowing so we can enjoy. So you are very much wrong. [/b][/quote] Why exactly does it have to be spun wide blah, blah, blah to be an enjoyable spectacle? I, and many more like me, find the team I'm supporting having a tight forwards battle, such as the final last week, much more enjoyable then I did watching Northampton play all this flowing rugby and put 74 points over Esher on the same day. To poo-poo forwards based rugby is basically saying you either don't understand what a pack does you only care for what the girls do. Or you're a die-hard league "I hate the Union and I love Socialism!" fan who only wants to **** stir. [/QUOTE]
