ngl itβs super cool to see how hyped people are getting about rugby as a sport now due to the olympics, especially US womenβs rugby with their bronze medal win. such a great sport that deserves all the love it can get
football originated as a spin-off of rugby and the two are completely different in terms of play style but ok
iβve played both and both are epic, football is easier to play with friends and is more interesting strategy-wise but rugby is just as fun to play and is a better team sport
I was joking, I couldnβt tell you one difference between the two. I assume they are basically the same? just a little different
Theyβre quite different in structure, gameflow, and vibe, though technically speaking during a typical football play, you could run a play like you would in rugby without breaking any football rules. some rugby concepts are still left in football, the latter has just evolved beyond them. highly recommend learning about and watching rugby if youβre interested
