Catching the ball

[Biggles]

Rugby is a fine game and relatively straight forward. Someone throws the ball someone else catches it.




Could someone please explain to the Scotland team that 1) the throwing part is exclusively to one's own team) and 2) dropping the ball has no part to play in the game.

Yes they do. England, however, stopped playing rugby in the mid eighties, they weren't too good at it so decided to make up a new game that involved the use of eight huge, supremely fit men who could hold onto the ball really tightly while executing, with military precision, rucks and mauls to get the ball near to the scoring zone. They also use seven other huge, supremely fit men who are good tacklers but have no skill and can't run very fast. Mostly these other seven guys stand around eating creatine.

Not a lot of people know this as it is often difficult to stay awake until the end of a match involving the England rugby team.
