Quote: Saddened! "So does no one actually know how you played it? Was it just Subbuteo with a funny shaped ball and you ended up with a total mess on the field?'"
Played it a few years ago, with a friend who'd 'inhereted' a Subbutteo World of Sport boxed set (i.e. the big collection that included football, cricket & rugby).
IIRC the rugby involved a maximum number of foward 'dribbles' before another man had to touch it, and the rugby ball didn't roll too well either. Scrum machine was disappointing too (also the cricket was nowhere near as good as Test Match).
IMHO it's not really worth paying out for now as it's a curiosity rather than a great game.
