I was doing a little channel hopping the other day, and stumbled across a football match from 1985 I believe, and though I don't remember who was playing I was amazed by that the pitch was wet and muddy, even missing patches of grass here and there, the players boots and shins were likewise muddy and grimy, their hair shaggy and unkempt, and you could practically smell the sweat coming off those kits - it just looked so much more MANLY than the matches of today.

That stretched into the mid 90s I believe. Once tackling practically wasn't allowed. Then the game got a reputation for being unmanly.

Should change it to modern football. Then I'd agree with you. You don't catch players from united of the early 90s doing that and it was a skilful game back then. Other clubs were like that too, they best you with pace/strength and lots of aggression. Now it's who can con the referee more or who can play for a foul and not to score a goal.

I'll take both, but probably the tightly muscled rugby players of today. I still hear rugby player build being used by some guys,though they usually mean a little - or quite a lot - overweight.

Found pro and amateur rugby players are good shags too.

That's because rugby players train and know how to take and make hits. It doesn't show that football is a more dangerous game

You get lethal blows in rugby due to the strength of the players and the tackling is more dangerous in football as when a genuine person gets injured. The falls they suffer are lethal. Look at the fall that Sagna suffered for arsenal against villa this season. You telling me a rugby player would have got up after that?

Yes!!

I have watched a game where a rugby league player would not come off during a final after breaking his jaw

The simplest of knocks in a rugby league game would put a footballer of today out of 2 weeks....soft prima donas!!

Seen the Sagna one at the beginning of the season against villa. Also I wouldn't place vidic or Phil jones in the wimp category either. In football terms they are warriors. Always going for things, etc. can't stand Ashely young though or Suarez as they do the opposite.

In football terms maybe. We can all sit here and shout about bad tackles and injuries. It's sport, they happen but you have to admit that footballers create a fuss over nothing. They act like they have broken their leg then get up to take the free kick!

Rugby players have cuts and splits lips, go off, get stitched up, put some Vaseline on to protect it then get stuck in again.

I think you find getting up to take a free kick is just to con the referee. They aren't serious about being hurt.

Difference is when in pain you solider on. Rugby players can play through it as they are built for it. Footballers aren't. Secondly when you are in pain you don't play to your strengths. If you lose a couple of games in rugby. So what. It's only a game as they say. Do that in football and the club can lose millions and even be put out of business. Just look at Leeds, Portsmouth. They were on the verge of bankruptcy and United have had their club devalued by £300 million and it's about to get worse, which is why they invest in players so they can come on for minor injuries as they will be at their best. Whereas the "injured" player won't be. However I do agree over the last 5ish years. No tackling is allowed and people complain over the slightest things. If you stuck all the players who are world class now. They wouldn't be nowhere near as good if they tried playing their game 15+ years ago.

sorry crazed but that is bollocks just because rugby doesn't attract the same pay packets as football doesn't make winning or losing any less important. Rugby teams can go under as well as football teams you know.

Im 38 and still last the whole match with the young ones and if anyone faked a injury or tried to get the other team player sent off or yellow carded he would have to buy the first round !!

Don't think because us rugby players run into each other, 'without pads' at full speed, fight, kick, scratch and bite and hug each other afterwards in the bar......and occasionally shower....

"Its union for me !! Im a tight head prop and loose head prop and play anywhere in the second row for Kingston rfc ! Im 38 and still last the whole match with the young ones and if anyone faked a injury or tried to get the other team player sent off or yellow carded he would have to buy the first round !! And we respect the ref ! "

And you are not a pro!...compare yourself with Sunday league footballers...not high end pro footballers

"Rugby League!! None of the namby pamby Union shite. As for football -pah!

Namby pamby union??? League is touch rugby for adults!! Tried watching some of the world cup last year and just couldn't get into it. All that 'you've had your turn now give it to the other team' crap!!!

They do have good bodies though so in terms of this thread I wouldn't differentiate between the 2 codes lol"

Evie you should know better being a Warrior fan, both codes are highly physical, pro players respect both..touch rugby! if Adrian Morley was lining you up think you might change your mind

"Neither for me. Both a bunch of Neanderthals if you ask me...

I was led to believe that the Portuguese national rugby union team was made up of semi-professionals whose others jobs include doctor, lawyer etc... Hardly Neanderthals.

Yes, but they are not exactly a representative example of the sport. "

Not that I've got a problem with Neanderthals, anyway.

Footballers they look better and fitter and you don't have scraped knuckles to contend with.

"If we were allowed to post links on here. I can safely say I can show some horrific football injuries that I hasn't seen in a rugby match.

That's because rugby players train and know how to take and make hits. It doesn't show that football is a more dangerous game

You get lethal blows in rugby due to the strength of the players and the tackling is more dangerous in football as when a genuine person gets injured. The falls they suffer are lethal. Look at the fall that Sagna suffered for arsenal against villa this season. You telling me a rugby player would have got up after that?

Yes!!

I have watched a game where a rugby league player would not come off during a final after breaking his jaw

The simplest of knocks in a rugby league game would put a footballer of today out of 2 weeks....soft prima donas!!"

Could not agree more!!!

Rugby League the greatest sport in the world!

Footballers are the ones who scrape their knuckles, half of then can't string a sentence together whereas most rugby players are well educated gentlemen with well paid professional jobs. They play hard and play well without resorting to diving and all the other dirty tricks football players try to pull off. Plus they respect the decision of the referee, shake hands, help each other up, play as a team and are a much better standard of gentleman than any over paid ballerina, I think I have said it all

The preconceptions of both sports here is ridiculous!

Rugby or football, if someone comes over and on your ankle or knee badly, it's going to hurt or worst: break. No amount of training is protecting you from that.

Secondly, playing on with an injury is dumb, not manly. Yeah, the crowd loves a hero but they run the risk of making bad injury worst and being out of team longer than normal or worst: threatening the future of their career.

All these jibes are some of the reasons why most men are not open about their sexuality in sport.

Anyway. I like football.

You are talking about amateur rugby players and comparing them to professional footballers..ridiculous.

Go and watch Toulouse play Toulon, or Scarlets v Ospreys...help each other up!!..don't think so

As a recently retired league 1 pro footballer I'm ashamed that people can be so ignorant. I have played with bright, intelligent, well mannered guys (in a football sense) I have also played with morons.

I have mixed with rugby lads on many occasions who also have a mixture of well behaved gents with a few morons mixed in. Folk on here pigeon holing people is unbelievable.

I've played with footballers built like rugby players (big shoulders and thighs) in fact in the 80's And 90's footballers we're built quite differently to many of those we see today!!

Sorry to rant but I felt the need to make a stand. Footballers get a raw deal from people because they are well paid??? If someone is prepared to pay you a huge salary for doing something you love, would you turn it down?

Ps. I'm a big rugby fan. Particularly of Rugby league and Leeds rhino's.

Pss. I hate footballers that dive/cheat. Spoiling a wonderful sport.

Jack

"Didn't Wayne Rooney take 4 weeks out with a cut on his forehead??

If that was Rugby, it would be stitched and back in the scrum!!!

Difference is when in pain you solider on. Rugby players can play through it as they are built for it. Footballers aren't. Secondly when you are in pain you don't play to your strengths. If you lose a couple of games in rugby. So what. It's only a game as they say. Do that in football and the club can lose millions and even be put out of business. Just look at Leeds, Portsmouth. They were on the verge of bankruptcy and United have had their club devalued by £300 million and it's about to get worse, which is why they invest in players so they can come on for minor injuries as they will be at their best. Whereas the "injured" player won't be. However I do agree over the last 5ish years. No tackling is allowed and people complain over the slightest things. If you stuck all the players who are world class now. They wouldn't be nowhere near as good if they tried playing their game 15+ years ago.

What a lode of crap thay need to man up. Each and every week I stand with my brothers on the rugby pitch you come down and tell them it's only a game and it dose not matter if thay lose a few. A x

I am with the lady above, my son has been playing since he was 7 and it's full contact from U9's onwards I stand at the side of a pitch come rain or shine every weekend sept - May, not one of them teenage boys are there for a bit of a kick about its serious stuff!!

Rugby is a lot more social too, boys make friends for life there is a lot more team spirit when you see teams on tour or around the towns. I am pleased and very proud he chose rugby.

You aren't comparing like with like...your talking about an amateur game..plenty of boys enjoy and make friends for life who play Sunday football. "

I played sunday league football and for the district on saturdays aswel from age 12 onwards, made some great friends who i still see and go out for a drink with now sometimes, as you say friends for life really. I still play 5-a-side football now and the team regularly gets together to go for a night out at weekends.
