Just looking at the all blacks vid and I was wondering how many people on NS play rugby or follow it at all?

If you play what is your position and what team do you play for?

I am a prop/lock and play for cole harbour and U-21 Keltics

Rugby is the shit! Got to watch some games at the last world cup- awesome. Getting liquored up with the Scots after their game v the US was piss funny! Nothing better than a drunken Scottish rugby player wearing a kilt.

i played in highschool for a year, I played every forward position but 8-man, depending on who was injured. Playing prop when you only weigh 165 is difficult, lemme tell you. Good thing I'm scrappy.

I used to play for my school team a few years back but we never played in the Daily Mail comp (even though we were a pretty solid team), I just thought maybe we might have had a match against your school, but I never played against Oakham.

around here we don't have much support for school rugby. Our superleague team usually has a good fan turnout but the fans are only the kids in HS that come out to watch.

Hey spunky we are not all americans on this site. I refused to play american football and the HS coaches got pissed when I palyed Rugby. I told them the reason why is simple. I am not going to use my pads as a weapon and try and go out and hurt the other team. In rugby i will use my body as a weapon but i will feel it just as much as the other guy and there is more comraderie in rugby then in football.
