  • Rugby vs American Football
    S stressking

    As a born and bred New Zealander where Rugby is almost a religion, I must contribute to this. I watch a some American Football on TV and must admit I quite enjoy it but do get frustrated at the stop and start nature of the sport. A rugby team is made up of 15 players and the game is played over 2 halves of 40 minutes and only 6 subs can be made during this time. Stoppages are brief. Yes we (rugby players) do not wear padding so our bodies have to absorb the impact in tackles - and as for players not giving it "there all" in tackles - you will have to imagine what it was like for me at 76KG being drilled by a 120kg opponent in the 79th minute. There are also the occasions when you find yourself at a bottom of a ruck where players from both sides try to rake back the ball with their feet. The modern rugby player at Super 14 and international level are incredibly fit and amazing athletes. Remember Jonah Lomu at his peak - 6 ft 4 and 220 lbs with a 100m time of 10.5 sec. He was probably the first "super" rugby player but now players of this size and capability are common in international rugby. If you get a chance to watch any of the Super 14 or Tri-Nations games between New Zealand, Australia and South Africa you will see many players of this elk (particularly the South African forward pack where some are close to 7ft and 280 lbs). Ok so I'm biased toward rugby due to where I live and our countries prowess in the sport but I do suggest everyone to watch some quality International rugby before making further comparisons.
