Why Rugby


Emerson uttered a mouthful when he said "whoso would be a man, must be a non-conformist" (but then he had a nasty habit of being profound). It could well be the rugby player's credo. You will find so many drawn to the game because they want to try something different, something exciting and new, and something that others may be just a bit fearful of.
