Again, rugby guys are typically normal sized men. Apples and oranges. If they played in the NFL without pads they'd be carried off the field in an ambulance after 1 down. Again, come off that argument.

If they're juicing they should be immediately and irrevocably banned. There is no specific example of this however, and if you want to say anything along the lines of "come on, it's obvious" well I'm sure it happens but I'm just as sure that at least half and IMO possibly the majority are clean. I do think that Football needs to do what baseball FINALLY did in getting PED's out of the game.

Oh, and I'm just as certain that PED's are present in soccer too.

Rugby guys aren't always normal sized mate. Some are small but some are as fat as bulls.

PED's are definitely present in football. I said as much here:

I know it goes on and have thought this for a while, but I'm not saying football players should wear pads because they're so big.

Just face it, Rugby rules are different and their tackles are different.

Also, don't you think there is a specific reason why all that padding is required?

It's not about that stupid bs that people like to argue that Rugby players are more tough than American Football players.

Few if ANY of them are 300-350, can bench rep 500 pounds like it's nothing and run the 40 in 4.2. That is the NORM in the NFL. Again, most rugby players wouldn't last a game in the NFL.

(By "majority" I mean at most 60%)

I'm saying they NEED pads or they'd be KILLED.




Don't try to compare any other sport to it. I'm not saying rugby players aren't tough guys, they are. But they'd be turned into a quivering pulp on jelly in an NFL game /discussion

We're going off topic here.

To summarise, football is better than American football, American footballers are too big to actually play.

I hate both sports with an equal amount of passion, lol. I used to play soccer too.
