Wish I understood rugby better. Seems like a cool sport. All I know is team Fiji owns the world at 7s

If you have Peacockchannel, watch the English Premier League matches there.

I started watching the USA league and NRL (Aussie league) and the CSBC Sevens when the football was shut down in the pandemic. I would just google stuff to try to learn about it (and still do).

For anyone who's interested, there are three types of rugby: Union, League and Sevens.

Here's a comparison of Union and League: https://sqaf.club/rugby-league-union-differences/

Sevens is a totally different animal, seven players to a side, two seven minutes halves. They play an entire tournament in two days, which is why it's the version played in the olympics.

What hell is this dna rifle thing? I type the word for a streaming TV channel, run by NBC, named after the bird on their logo, and the site displays dna rifle.

Loved watching the sweet 16 and final 4 runs. The guys at the Buck were awesome. I didn't follow after those years. What happened?

They're still going! I wasn't able to follow after I graduated, but here they are: https://www.facebook.com/UWYOmensrugby/

My son's U8 kid-pitch coach was a rugger at CSU and Florida during those times, and has a lot of respect for the 'boys.
