whats the rugby team like?
American football is a far more anaerobic sport than rugby, hence the size differences in the top athletes - Linemen in Football are a good bit heavier than rugby props, etc. But I disagree with the organisation statement, lineouts and scrums are usually very organised, but it would be true to say that tactics can play a far more significant role in football than rugby. The stanford rugby team that represented the USA at the 1924 olympics left football (there main sport) apparently because they detested the coach dominated and what they described as 'soft' game of football. But then its different eras and whatever sport you prefer u prefer.
