:lol: Why do you say that? No, I couldn't kick well enough. I used to play wing because I was too fast and pretty.
LOL, I just picked a random position. Sorry, I don't really know that much about RU. It is (or at least was when I grew up) a private schoolboy, toff, rich Northern/Eastern Suburbs of Sydney type of sport.

Whereas RL is the much bigger and more popular sport in Sydney and absolutely adored by the massive amounts of brogans in this fair city. Especially in the Western/South Western Suburbs (Full of Ockers and Immigrants of Southern European/Middle Eastern Descent)

LOL @ playing wing. Thats where they always stick the least talented players eh :D

No, just the ones that don't want to get hurt :D

It is very middle class and upper class here, RU is centred around the affluent East Midlands, Home Counties and North East. RL is the working class sport, massive in cities in Lancashire and Yorkshire.

RU is big locally being close to Rugby. Coventry used to have a really big team in the 60s and 70s, now Leicester and Northampton are the regional powers.

We used to play against private schools like Bablake and Henry VIII and get absolutely smashed, these schools produce England international players :lol:
