In rugby you need to be able to tackle, run, pass, kick (well, some do), and think critically on the field. This all have to be done for 80 mins while basically running 3–5 miles. It is exhausting both mentally and physically. People just think about hits and think toughness, but what really sets rugby apart is the fact that you have to ruck, ruck, and then ruck some more. There are few stoppages, so you are rarely there catching your breath. Out flyhalf is yelling for us to “get there” and we have to run across the field to ruck (look it up, I can’t begin to explain it) The ball comes back out, all the way to the wing again…he breaks down the field and drops the damn ball. We have to scrum. We go to scrum and the opposing prop is being a dick and keeps trying to pull it down, then blames me. This happens twice, so we have to restart. Then the ball gets kcked back out of the tunnel, so we go for a 3rd time. On the fourth time they hook it back to their second row on an obvious feed, but I time the drive nicely and we are able to win it back.
