This is starting to look terribly familiar. Perhaps soccer should be moved to the Religion section?

Soccer is probably ahead on skill. But, Rugby miles ahead on tactics and strategy.

And there was me thinking you were actually serious .

Is there an "all of the above, and more" option?

So I know they are old pictures, some of you might remember a powerpoint doing the rounds about 10 years ago. I like them and they are vaguely relevant to the thread...

Yay I like photos...

Bannasidhe · 16-06-2012, 18:14

Me too.

Ah - ladies rugby - what an oxymoron of a name.

**Mars Bar** · 16-06-2012, 18:48

There should be spoilers on those. I think I'm gonna be sick...

**Jernal** · 16-06-2012, 18:54

That's the last time I read A&A threads on a full stomach.

Hmmmmm....We may have the potential for a Tough Love Diet Plan (tm) here.

*Sarky* · 16-06-2012, 19:39

Hmm. I need to get some dinner.

What?

**The Mad Hatter** · 16-06-2012, 20:24

Well, I can see why these sports are so popular.

***Dades*** · 17-06-2012, 00:02

My foot looked all fooked like one of those pictures after a soccer match a few years ago. It looked so weird lying on the grass pointing the wrong way I pushed it back the way it should be before the body chemicals wore off. The most amazing thing was how I heard my fibula snap initially but felt nothing. Mmmmm. Natural gear.

When does this poll close? If it stays the way it is right now I shall hold my vote until the very last moment when I can be the one to bring balance to the force.

I like watching Rugby and GAA but my game has always been soccer.
