I went to a comp. Rugby was the winter sport, Association Football was against school rules. You couldn't even play football at break or lunch time. After I'd left they relaxed the rules and the school maintained an excellent rugby team and an all conquering (Association) football team. Personally, I loved playing rugby.

They still have more players to choose from. Unless the argument is those who play aren’t very good?

That was very much like the teeth-pulling exercise of watching Albion this season. If it could be made to go wrong, it did. England looked inept in every department bar some last ditch Johnstonesque defending. Scotland looked faster, fitter, quicker-thinking and creative. Thought I was going to get a break from that sort of hopeless feeling today!

Sure, but that's atypical. In terms of participation in sport, data from 2019 shows around two and a half million participants in football. The rugby union figure is 10% of that.

Yes, Albion make all opposition look like world beaters and Scotland looked better in every department throughout. I thought it'd shift after half time especially with the man short for a while, but no. Very Albion-esque from England! |
