I know several people who have been crippled for life in rugby-related accidents; compound fractures, broken backs, legs and even hips, and one guy who got eye-gouged and now one of his eyes is just a scarred up white orb. Plus, have you ever seen what old rugby players noses and ears look like? It's like something out of Brueghel.

THE BALL GOES IN THE NET. What's not to understand?
KharBevNor:
Every time one of my 'friends' induces me to try and play some shitty wank-arse football game on the X-Box or whatever ("It's fun lighten up jeez") I can never score, ever, because I am offside, a rule which makes no sense at all on any level which I can even begin to think of, and seems to bear no relation to the apparently simple rules of the game I used to play occasionally in the playground at school.
valley_parade:
Offsides: The ball is played. When your teammate kicks the ball, you're behind the furthest-back defender.
Guy on the sideline points a flag at you.
KharBevNor:
See, that doesn't make any sense.
