Quote: Wooden Stand "Is that possible?
If anyone is a fan of Rugby League, it would surely be implausable that s/he would not see the Union game as anything but pretty dire, on the whole.'"
I played both union and league on and off for 25 plus years. Both league and union when I was younger and just union in my dotage (that tells you the differences between the two from a physical standpoint). I watch Super League live and English union internationals both home and away and know many other league fans who do also (travelling to Rome, Paris or Dublin may have a bearing on that though). I watch everything I can on the tv regarding both.
I see them as two totaly different sports offering different kinds of enjoyment. I take as much pleasure as watching a league player crashing through two tackles and offloading for a try as i do watching a rolling maul.
