Quote: Sandra The Terrorist "I played Union before I played league to a reasonable level, it was what my school did at the time.
Years later I played in a Union sevens tournament with a league team. As I was the only one ever to play everyone looked to me for what to do.
In the end we decided to just run it all the time. First game we received the kick, I ran it back, no one tackled me, drew the full back and put my winger in under the posts.
It continued like that until we won the tournament.
We were clueless at line outs, but we had a great time pretending we had set plays. They were called "Marigold", "Buttercup" and "Daffodil". They didn't actually mean anything but they did achieve the aim of annoying all the Hymers types as we were obviously taking the michael with it.'"
LOL, Like it! I have no interest in watching a ball returned to the opponent at every opportunity. I'd watch Tennis if I did (which I wont).
Its just boring, long winded etc. The only good bit is the competing in the scrum, but even that can take 10 minutes to set up!
