Rugby is physical but there is little complaining …
“Football is a gentleman’s game played by hooligans. Rugby is a hooligan’s game played by gentlemen.”
Oscar Wilde
Someone who has not yet studied rugby will probably shake his head at this quote. But if you take a closer look at the game, you begin to understand what is meant. For one thing, it’s about the background of most rugby players. It is a typical college sport, so in fact a large proportion of the players have a university education.
