Quote: Ferocious Aardvark "

I am a fan of both League and Union and have attended 7's events including the Middlesex Sevens on a number of occasions. When Bradford and Wigan won the event it was very different to the IRB sevens events we have seen evolve over the last few years. The Middlesex Sevens was viewed by the top English clubs as a 'jolly' a charity event that only saw a few established players turn out to represent their clubs, the majority of players were squad players or youngsters. In this period it was the invited teams that took it more seriously. If you look at the history of winners in the years between Wigan winning in 96 and Bradford winning in 02 not one top flight English club won. The world sevens game has become massive and England have had some success.
Some of the League players mentioned could make a decent fist of sevens, Tomkins and Burrow leap to mind however, the game is just too quick for the likes of Hock, Langley or any of the League forwards mentioned. On the whole the League forwards are considerably more mobile and athletic than most union forwards however, most union forwards do not play sevens and the League forwards are no way as athletic and mobile as union backs.

Quote: Wooden Stand "What happened to that Dutoni?

I also seem to remember somebody who fought the rest of the world for hundreds of posts about what constitutes a forward pass. Is he still around?'"


He got permanently banned for some reason. I think it was because his trolling became too much, the bites too big, and some simpletons on Other Sports were put out of their misery.

I'm sensing him on this thread however...

It's the perversion of mankind, just look at what the most popular things are:

Food - McDonalds
Sport - soccer
TV - Reality shows
Music - pop

Mankind's history is littered with the popularity of absolute e!

What's "this"? Rugby Union 7's?
