A nice defensive move on the smaller player. Fortunately they were wearing helmets and pads which makes it safe compared to the Australian NRL. Nice hit though.

  • I would like to say something to those who compare Rugby to AF.

    They are not the same sport so the use of gear does not in of itself make it safer. If you played Rugby and then added protective gear then you might say that it is now safer...however the gear is there to protect against major injuries but it causes minor injuries.

    and FYI...Insurance companies have AF as a Stage 4 sport wheras Rugby(Union & League) are Stage 2 sports. Thus the chance of injuries are much greater in AF.

  • and this comes for the guy with wow videos. hahahaha i bet you never played a sport in your life

  • @Zurrixia I'm sorry how does the protective gear cause minor injuries?

    and your comment about the Insurance companies.

    I'm guessing you live in the states where Rugby is not as prominent as AF, and hence

    you don't play at the level like say us here in New zealand.

    By the way Rugby League is even more physical than Union because of that fact

    that it's mainly tackling oriented, it's often cited as the most physical team sport in the world.

  • i play both rugby and american football and i would say as far as people getting hurt american football leads but for people losing parts of their body it is rugby.

  • You think you know everything about NRL?

    Come play the game, Against REAL men.

    Im not saying we're harder, Im just saying we know how to take a real hit WITHOUT padding.

    The only difference between that hit and Rugby, Is that we have to rap out arms around them, It cant be a simple hip and shoulder hit.

  • #3 is an ass

  • grid iron is a weak sport u dont need protection pussys

  • Compared to NRL !?!?!?! Are you kidding me !? I beleive it is ILLEGAL to make a hit like that in the NRL because of the lack of equipment...I want any aussi to look at that hit and say it wouldn't hurt...Freaking aussies always thinking they have a harder sport...just give up no one cares, they are two different sports

  • fuk, this looks just abit better than NRL.. lol jks, ill give this sport a try. Dam looks awsome!!

  • i hate rugby thats a bunch of retards throwing a ball backwards!!!
