Just for a bit of fun.

There's table tennis, table hockey, table football. Is there a feasible way of creating table rugby?! No idea how it would work, but would be a good pub game! Thought I'd pick at the collective minds on here and see if there's any bright ideas floating out there!

If there's a Union version it will involve throwing a miniature ball at the empty spaces in a room for no reason whatsoever.

When I was a kid in the 80's, the lad next door to me had Subbuteo Rugby.

Think he means something a bit quicker than that.

For starters you'd need defensive likes that can move back and forth, unlike Table Football's static players... for league anyway. Think there's a reason it hasn't been done - rugby doesn't seem to obviously work with it sadly.

Worth thinking about though...

kcab sfrawdder Luck is a combination of preparation and opportunity Just to avoid confusion Starbug is the username of Steven Pike SOMEBODY SAID that it couldn’t be done But he with a chuckle replied That “maybe it couldn’t,” but he would be one Who wouldn’t say so till he’d tried. So he buckled right in with the trace of a grin On his face. If he worried he hid it. He started to sing as he tackled the thing That couldn’t be done, and he did it!:9005.jpg



There is already a table version of RL , all you need is a table , a matchbox and some cello tape

I've played Subbuteo rugby but I've never heard of table rugby. Can't think of a way how it would work

We used our fingers and thumbs as posts and you had to get the coin through posts just like Rugby.
