Seriously, commit to rugby
@Corpsey , maybe start with the All Blacks or southern hemisphere history/style and once you’re familiar with the basics, its beauty will survive as first loves never can. If you see the game played by the best, at the limits of human talent and skill, you’ll have the ultimate yardstick to compare with
Too late with football, game is too soiled in spirit from £ injecting investment so go with old glories like union and league. When we are all dead, the game lives on. And you’ll notice after a year, 18months, in .. you’ll never want to take ketamine ever again
Your ship is your team, what other ocean do you need to traverse when you can travel to Paris, Rome or further on to a tour of Oz or NZ, the kind of tour myths spring from. Quick, before the game is annulled from early onset dementia/head injuries
