The greatest game of all.
Initially formed as a breakaway from Rugby Union in the early 20th century as a way for players to be paid instead of the governing body pocketing all the profits, Rugby League has long since surpassed it's inferior cousin in all aspects.
A working class game of 13 men a side, there is no tougher sport on the planet. The men who play Rugby League are the true Gladiators of the 20th and 21st centuries.
An 80 minute game that is generally completed, with stoppages, in under 100 minutes, Rugby League is a test of skill, fitness, co-ordination and strength that no other game can match.
Imagine American Football played without the padding or the incessant stoppages and you get some idea of the pace and toughness of Rugby League.
Watch it and you WILL love it.

Get the rugby league mug.Rugby Union players come in two distinct forms, skilled athletes with strength, speed and an unmatched will to win - these players are procured by Union clubs from their superior bretheren - Rugby League clubs.
The other types tend to be pale doughy creatures more accustomed to sitting on the ground waiting for something to happen, but not wanting it to involve too much physical activity, generally walking to a lineout or scrum is considered a workout to them.

Examples of the superior form of Rugby player can be seen in Jason Robinson, Andy Farrell, Wendell Sailor (before those unionites shoved coke up his nose) and Lote Tuquiri.
The inferior form of Rugby Player can easily identified by a distinct lack of athletic ability for a professional sportsman.
