The Rugby Union Thread

[Nuclear Spoon]

It appears that all most of us seem to talk about in here is football, so I thought it'd be nice to have a change. Yes, this thread may well be a flop but what the hell. If you like Rugby League go somewhere else create your own thread, this is for Union. So talk about what you like. We'll start off by going round saying what team we support. Go quins. woo.

As you will know I am a leaguie in the main.
However,thanks for at least calling this a rugby UNION thread instead of just plain RUGBY which some union folks seems to think applies to the 15 man game alone.
I do watch union,rarely at club level though.
I prefer the 13 man code,I find Union too slow,the ball in the crowd to much.
Anyway,back to topic,this isn't a debate about the merits of either version.
I watch the Internationals,support England (but still laugh when they lose like I do a lot at the soccer "team"),but have no club affiliation,other than maybe Warrington RUFC where I played for a few years,before returning to play league.(yes,we swapped codes in the 80s too round there,you know..... :angel: )

good on you for starting this thread.

but i cant really add to as i havent got sky on anything so i cant watch the rugby, and the nearest club is the falcons and as i hate newcastle i cant support them.

[Nuclear Spoon]

I haven't got Sky either, so sometimes I try and persuade my dad to take me down to see a Quins match. They used to have club rugby on terrestrial but then those Sky bastards got the rights... I would've got Sky but there's too many trees in the way that block the signal or something...

[Mr.3374]

I haven't got Sky as Sky,but via cable.
Pity you have to deal with Ntl,though.....

Are there any other rugby fans on these forums?
I am a big Northampton Saints fan (have been since I was 5) and I have been as far away as Toulouse to support them! I play for my school (which sucks because school = bollocks), a club (M.K.) and Bucks County
Rugby (union) is the greatest sport on the planet
