sorry, but those boys cant fight for shit. ok they made alot of effort, running around, throwing lame punches, but only one guy was left down, and he wasnt even out. i saw so many punches landed but none were good enough to even make the recipitent move

Not disagreeing with you, nice to see it boil over and people actually hit eachother than swear and spit at one an other like they do in football.
mind you timm you know what its like working the doors wen it kicks off n theres 15 or so going at it, its not too dissimilar on a rugby field.

Ive always maintained, rugby players aint fighters.
Still good when it happens tho.

yes great point actually. they didnt bother fvcking about and giving it the biggun when in reality they were too afraid to get stuck in! raises the entertainment value for sure hehe

aye. shame about it is, it never happens anymore. last big international punch up i saw was Ireland V South Africa in 98' that was top. it didnt stop for the last 20 mins of the game, every time the ball went to ground it would kick off.
Not that i advocate fighting in rugby, i love the game as it is.
But its a sport where talking is put aside when its time to front up.

Loved the flying knee to headlock the one guy did........other than that looked like a chick fight

yeah you cant miss that one can you, wonder what ban he had for that.
