I understand it , just it is too violent and too slow for my likes.

league.. just started watching it this last couple of weeks since there is hardly any football on and i'm fairly hooked on it. i used to watch a fair bit of union but it's too slow compared to league.

Absolutely loads! League is a much faster game with no scrums and is quite exciting but I love the strategy of the Union. It is slower but very interesting too.

There are scrums in Rugby League, just there's no point in them. I think they're uncontested :S


whats the difference:S

League - 13 men on a team. 4 points per try with 2 for a conversion. 2 for a penalty goal and 1 for a drop goal.
Union - 15 men on a team. 5 points per try with 2 for a conversion. 3 for a penalty goal and 3 for a drop goal.

:D

They aren't meant to, they just slow down play temporarily. Don't have an excess of scrums anyway.

I'll take league anyday thanks.
Saints aren't winning CC this year, Huddersfield wants a rematch with a different result :)

Wise men said, only fools rush in, but I can't help falling in love with you, take my hand, take me whole life too, for I can't help falling in love with you... FARTOWN! Init :)

League is only played in the North so there's no League teams near me at all in my region so I played union, and like it. Plus union is what rugby's about, and it's original :)

Yes.

You get 6 tackles. Hand over on the 6th. Usually kick on the 5th, or 4th.

Lol I chose wrong in the poll clicked Rugby Union instead of League. I'd choose League any day it's such an interesting game to watch and you can't take your eyes off it for a second because more than likely you'd miss something. I been a Bradford Bulls season ticket holder for 11 years now and i've loved every minute of it watching them compete :D The competition in this years Super League is phenomanol with there being a 3 point gap between 11th position and 6th position which is the last play off place everything still to play for. Just makes me more excited for the weekend for more Rugby league.
