Rugby or Football?

Post answer below, remember to include why :D

Idk if this should go in debates but yeah, ill try find out lol :)

I prefer rugby because its more contact and football just isnt enough contact and well as my teacher says;

" Football is a gentlemens game played by thugs and Rugby is a thugs game played by gentlemen"

So yeah...

Looking forward to hearing what you like :):eusa_whis:eusa_whis:eusa_whis

rugby. definatley rugby. its a contact sport but you just have to get on with it

yet football isnt and the slightest bit of contact is an injury.

and in my school, what you said about rugby and football is totally opposite.

wimps play football and the rough "thugs" play rugby.

but im sort of inbetween them but play rugby.

It's not stupid, believe it or not their is more respect shown in rugby than their is in football. ;)

Now, now let's not turn this into a fighting thread... we've seen enough of those in this section. ;)

You can get badly injured in football aswell, and their are players who try and run it off. Look at Richard Dunne in football, he tried playing when half of his head was cracked open... he was stopped five minutes later only because the ref spotted him.

I like both... Sale Sharks and Manchester City... can't beat 'em. ;)

Rugby. The whole idea of putting your body on the line for the sake of the win and the sake of your team mates, I find kinda noble. Better than falling over for your team mates and to win.

Rugby

For one I'm born and bred a rugby person (like football but more rugby)
In matches you don't see any riots or hooliganism in rugby
The game is much more better.

there's other reasons but yeah.

Football.

Being brought up by a dad who absolutely hates anything and anyone associated with rugby, I have to say football. Rugby is boring to watch. They're just passing the ball around and running into some guy. At least you get some entertainment in football. Football has a better atmosphere as well.

i know hooliganism is wrong and people can get hurt but it actually adds to the atmosphere i've been to millwall a couple of times and when both sets of fans create a hostile atmosphere its brilliant

Football by a loooong way. Yes there's too much acting in football but it's the minority of players that do it, and anyone who calls it a wimpy sport should say that to players who have had their careers ended by challenges. I just find rugby really boring while football plays a massive part in my life. And as said before, I think there's so much more entertainment in football.

I play Rugby as I'm too muscly to play football (I tackle someone and he goes down crying?:S) Also, rugby isn't boring, it's just because we have line outs like football has throw-ins? :S

Rugby is a more demanding sport than football by far, we put our bodies on the line each time we run into someone, footballers run about a pitch and stat crying when someone clips their ankle. Ouch.. ;/

It's boring.. in my opinion. :)

And the last part just isn't true.. the vast minority of footballers act like that when they come into slight contact with an opposition player. At most, teams in the Premiership have 1-2 of those players, obviously it's different abroad but in England it's not common. Even the players more well known for doing it here [Drogba, Ronaldo etc] have cut down on it.
