I did not know much about Rugby. I was a Cricket fan. One day I decided to watch this new game called Rugby. It was Rugby World Cup time. I happened to watch a rugby game in which New Zealand was playing. There was a terrific player named Jonah Lomu. I watched the games and I was hooked to Rugby. Now Rugby is my preferred game to watch. Are you a rugby fan? Have you ever been hooked to a sport?

I am a massive rugby fun, and that is pretty srange since: I'm italian (and here is almost allo about football) and I'm a rather small girl (I don't know why but this puzzles almost anyone when I start talking about rugby). But the fact is that... I love it! I try to follow the Magners league as much as I can and I rate the Heineken Cup higher than the Champions League, plus I'm always at the stadium when Six Nations is on.
So yeah, I guess I'm pretty hooked to it!

In India people are crazy about Cricket. I was also crazy about it. After I watched a few games and understood the rules, I was hooked to Rugby.
I now prefer watching Rugby to Cricket. Are you watching "Super14"? It's nearing the semi finals.

Yes, Rugby is a beautiful game and here in India we all are Cricket Crazy and I am no exception to it. I love rugby and it is my second best liked next to Cricket. But the time zone is a big problem for me to watch the rugby matches. Even I like Heineken cup. In India very few people knows what Rugby is actually about. Here cricket dominates every other things including FootBall. In India, people who watch Cricket is much higher than the people who watch Football. I love NewZealand Rugby team and I wish I see one Rugby match in Newzealand.

I wish I could! Unfortunately the time zone ia not really the best from italy... I try to keep up wiith the news anyway. I like 'southern rugby': it is a lot different from eupean one, even some rules change; following it a bit gives you a differnt point of view about rugby and some keys for a better understanding of international matches (as the World Cup ones).

I t a game full of excitement,physical strngth and skill to outmanouver the opponent.The game of rugby is meant for supreamly fit men who have the stamina to endure on the field.It is extreamly attractive to watch and a thrilling spectcle to say the least.The rugby teams of South Africa, Australia and Newzealand continue to be my favourite teams.

That is right. If a short and skinny man tries the game, he will be in for some real pain. It is exciting to see big men wrestle it out in the game.
