What i think of Rugby as a sport

Rugby is a famous sport, not so much as others, but is still very funny and interesting. This sport , in a way, comes from football, I mean British football, but with some different rules and different pitch. Like, for example, the British football pitch is divided in lines, of 10 yards of distance between each one; while rugby's pitch is just a normal pitch with 2 lines that shows where it's each team score zone. Also, in football, is allowed to do everything you want to your opponent, while in Rugby, you can only grab him under the waist to do a "tackle". And, when someone want to throw the ball, in football you can throw it anywhere, while in Rugby you can't throw it forward, always backwards.

It has its good and bad things, like every sport. In the good things, it's very interesting and funny, and as it has many rules to make the match safe, you won't have to care so much of getting hurt. In the bad things, you should be very attentive, 'cause when someone tackles you, if you don't land correctly, you'll probably get hurt. Also, you have to memorize many rules, and that could really confuse someone.

In my opinion, this is a very funny, exciting game, that you shouldn't be afraid of, just be always concentrate and alert.
