Opposite for me along with Cross-country.


Oh I didn't ever like playing it at school at one point I had a letter from home so I didn't have to take part in full-contact rugby :tongue:

The way my school did cross country was bad, running laps around the field or walking in wet mud in the country. I’ll blame the school.

What’s full contact rugby?

Also @CatusStarbright not even in the same group but you’re going down. Gonna go 100 years war on you, minus the bit where England lose

:woo: Let's go!

I just wonder why I am here in that sweepstake. I have no interest in Rugby in the slightest and don't know any rules of that sport. Do I have a good chance that my team becomes the world champion? :colone:

Yes! You have South Africa and they're the team I think are going to win!

What’s full contact rugby?

Rugby with proper tackling (and not, say, touch rugby or tag rugby which don't have the tackling)

And what is about the rest, no another favorites for the victory? would be funny to see my drawn team winning, although I am a rugby layman.
