[QUOTE="Scotty, post: 981012, member: 74100"] As Olly said sevens is an offshoot, all the same rules(give or take) but less players on the same size pitch so its faster and played alot different and shorter games but alot of prem players play prem 7s in the summer aswell as it is used getting a look at some younger players. So they are very linked where as league is completly different, no rucks, lineouts, essentially uncontested scrums. Different scoring, max 6 phases(6 i think?). Tackling is alot different too. As said totally different governing body. I have had the league vs union argument so many times and you will never convince a league fan to like union better or vice versa. All the things i like about union is what a league fan hates about it. Union is much better IMO but i do like league. [/QUOTE]
