It's like rugby made deliberately hard. And I don't really understand rugby either, but it's a hell of a lot more interesting than the soft version you lot play.

I get you, your talking about NFL. I know a lot about that too, probably more than most Americans. Have you seen what they do on the field? You try playing their sport without protective gear and see how long it takes before you finish up in hospital for months. The players are twice the size of rugby players, move faster and hit harder. And after all the protection, they still have serious career ending injuries and deaths

It is definitely not for pussies (unless you're Tom Brady).
