Starts tomorrow. Whosin?

 

Will be difficult for some but lets try and not make this a League Vs Union slagfest.

 

SLSC.

Well, me and the other "Cheshire Herberts" are very much looking forward to this

Here are a couple of suggested rule changes to brighten the thing up a bit, because as much as I slag it off there is half a decent game in there somewhere, just not under present arrangements. Would any unionistas have a problem if:

 

- They paused the clock for every single stoppage, no matter the cause

- In the event of a failed attempt at a scrum, there was an automatic tap to whichever teams's feed it was

- Reductions to two points for a penalty, one for a drop goal

- 75% of the offences which result in a penalty during a ruck or maul to be struck off the rulebook

- The halves to be extended to at least fifty minutes each

- No mark can be called

- Owen Farrell to be twatted in the face with a sledgehammer three times every half.

 

It seems to me that these would relieve some of the game's frustrations - as cited not by me and other leagueists but by unionistas themselves - and also mean that union remains union and still attractive to the posh lads.

Too easy this

For the uneducated, why does it take 3 - 4 minutes when a scrum is awarded for it to actually occur?

 

As for the game itself, England decidedly second best, scoreline seems about right. England players simply can't keep up with their breaking player and their attacks turn over far too easily, Aussies punt ball down field then in no time are threatening England try line.

Here's another suggestion. Every time England play Australia they should just not bother turning up, just like they do in League. Howd on a minute....

So the best reason you can think of that rugby union could not do with a few rule changes to liven it up is that England's rugby league team is not as good as Australia's. Righto, glad that's clear.

What's the issue with Farrell Maggie?

 

A Wigan thing?

Yip. That's about it.

That last 4 minutes sums up just how fucking shit union is

 

3 minutes were spent fucking about with a scrum before the ref got bored.

 

It's shite.

I hate the Aussies as much as any man, but what cheating was the cause of a 33 to 13 mauling at "Headquarters"?

No complaints. Didn't deserve to win. Fook off England! Smiffs is right. RU is shite. I'm going to start watching the other super league. Much more exciting. Fitter, faster, no kicking and tits. Netball for this clacker'.

Include helmets and giving the teams names like Pythons, Juggernauts and Killers, and you've got yourself American Football

When's the six nations start?

To be fair, we've already got names like Sharks, Chiefs, Falcons, Tigers, and my favourite team name of all, just Wasps.

Whether it would have made a difference we'll never know, but they cheated cynically a few times

 I would have to disagree. Never seen a game so dissected by off the field camera refs always resulting in the correct decision . Surely any "cheating" would have been found out? Anyhow reading the fall out in various newspaper columns and forums  and the lack of cheating "assertion" would suggest your cheat assertion is sheer frustration. Understandable, but mistaken.

Just asking, serious question, how many RU enthusiasts on here actually pay money to watch club RU?

Don't be fuckin daft ????????

I know, I know ????

Ey bolty. This wonderful world event you keep telling us union provides...couldn't even get out of the group stages in their own backyard.

 

Mind you given about 231 countries play it worldwide, being in the top half dozen of them should be seen as successful no?
