It used to be said that rugby was a game for hooligans played by gentlemen and football a game for gentlemen played by hooligans.
No longer true?
I caught this quote on the rugby show last night:
'I love rugby; you can hurt people without breaking the rules.'

Had a friend who played sport in the 1950's. He stopped playing football and started playing rugby - because football was to violent!
you need to have a brain to actually hurt someone and still stay in the bounds of legality - unlike football!
