PostTue Jul 26, 2005 8:07 pm    Rugby League or Rugby Union

As a big fan of Rugby, I wanted to see which game people preferred. So, do you prefer Rugby League or Rugby Union?

I prefer Rugby Union, as I feel it's a very skilled game and very intense. However, I can sit there and watch Rugby League which is quite intense, and maybe a little faster at times.

Looking forward to your views.

P.S. Don't forget to say why you chose the one you did.

Now thats a hard question for me to answer, as i've played both. I think both sports are great to play and watch. I think League is more physically demaning because you are always 10meters apart, and are always running at each other hard for 80mins, where in Union you can kick the ball all the time and the game is forever being stopped, so you get more time to get your breath back.

So i voted "equal". I couldnt deside

Thanks for voting. A lot of people like both games equally, which I can totally understand.

I'm actually living in England, my friend. Because my username is Superman, I've put my location down as Metropolis, United States, but I am actually a Brit.

I don't play now - too old for that (maybe). I used to play it at school (Union, I'm talking about) and for a local team, though. It was a cracking game, even if it did leave me with the odd sprained ankle.

Oh dear. Get well soon, my friend.

Still, I'm sure you'll make a full recovery, unlike soccer players who milk an injury for months (just kidding, soccer fans).

Thanks mate. Ha, remember the last World Cup where that guy got hit in the leg with the ball and fell over clutching his head

Well i played basketball last night with a strapped thumb and it was fine, it only popped out once, but it feels much better today. SHould only have to have it strapped for about 4-5days i think.
