Im not sure how many people here pay attention to rugby, but I do and am a huge fan. I came across this 20min youtube video about the Harlequins title run last year. They remind me a lot of what LSU could be

So how did Harlequins win the Premiership

Just not sure the correlation between futbol and football, but OK.

I applaud the OP, but downvoted anyway… just to fit in.

I'm a Bath supporter but I'll agree with your premise simply because we both love rugby. ??

LSU Tigers making incremental improvements on offense, defense and special teams might make all the difference in tigerdroppings on again - off again love affair with Coach O…

Johnson - Boutte need to hook up more…
Big plays and three and outs with Ricks and Stingley
Field the punts for Billy’s sake… Feel free to take one punt off the bounce and return for a touchdown…

mehs quickly become OMGs

You really whiffed here, dumb arse.

Unlike futbol/soccer, Rugby Football is the DIRECT predecessor from which American Football evolved.

Everything in American Football from the Line of scrimmage to the extra point comes from Rugby. Except the forward pass, timeouts, and pads. That shite didn't come from rugby.

Why do you even think a touchdown is called a touchdown?

Nice job.


I have to be the ONLY Member of TD to say they were a member of LSU football(93-1994) team and the Dallas Harlequins Rugby Club(1999-2001. And while it's not a farm team of the OPs Pro Harlequins team, they are a top tier D1 team in the US and have permission to use their logo/mascot).

I obviously played rugby for LSU after quitting football. Fall of 1994 to spring 1998.

Thanks for your kind explanation. It will definitely lower my "dumbass quotient" going forward.
