I am not a great follower but you have to give credit to the Japanese team for tyring, given the carnage that is usually inflicted on them. I still have vivid images of Japanese people flying around the pitch after attempting to tackle

Oh, and Argentina rocks

Question, an opportunity has come up to do a bit of tag rugby with work and I don't need to commit too much time, is also beside the job, has any of ye done it before, if so, is it worth doing?, I am just looking for a rugby taster.
The Japanese are technically good but they still lack the strength and speed necessary to compete at the very highest levels.

Tag rugby is often taught in schools here in the UK. I would like to think that it is because it teaches kids to move the ball quickly before someone gets a chance to get near them, to encourage a flowing, running game, to improve their basic techniques at speed etc etc.
But I think it is down to bloody Elf and Safety laws in this country which stifle everything - too risky for little Tommy to play rugby; might get hurt. Funny how the same Government think its okay to do certian drugs. Little Tommy isn't allowed to get a bruise but is allowed to get smashed off his face and give himself brain damage.

I think it's generally called Rugby League.
Naughty, naughty
