Rugby players are either piano shifters or piano movers. Fortunately, I am one of those who can play a tune.

Rugby is a hooligans game played by gentlemen.
Winston Churchill

Rugby is a nonsense, but a very serious nonsense.
Cliff Morgan

Rugby is great. The players don't wear helmets or padding they just beat the living daylights out of each other and then go for a beer. I love that.

Rugby is a good occasion for keeping thirty bullies far from the center of the city.
Oscar Wilde

Rugby backs can be identified because they generally have clean jerseys and identifiable partings in their hair... come the revolution the backs will be the first to be lined up against the wall and shot for living parasitically off the work of others.

Rugby is a game for the mentally deficient... That is why it was invented by the British. Who else but an Englishman could invent an oval ball?

Rugby has always been a game for all shapes and sizes. You have the superstars and the fast guys who score the tries, but you also need the workhorses and the people who play all the other roles. Unless they all work together as a team then it's really going to affect the performance. Everyone's got to rely on everyone else.

For me now, I will continue to focus ever harder on my goal of being the very best I can be with Toulon Rugby Club and continue to embrace and enjoy wherever that path takes me.

I played rugby most of my life and then I switched to snowboarding, which provided me a lot of inspiration.

I like to think I play rugby as it should be played - there are no yellow or red cards in my collection - but I cannot say I'm an angel.

About my boss, Tyler tells me, if I'm really angry, I should go to the post office and fill out a change-of-address card and have all his mail forwarded to Rugby, North Dakota.
Chuck Palahniuk

New Zealand are the best team in the world - the execution and accuracy of their skills were a lesson in modern rugby.

In south west Lancashire, babies don't toddle, they side-step. Queuing women talk of 'nipping round the blindside'. Rugby league provides our cultural adrenalin. It's a physical manifestation of our rules of life, comradeship, honest endeavour, and a staunch, often ponderous allegiance to fair play.

Mentally, (consistency) is important when you're not used to rugby at that level. Some of the smaller teams in this tournament are staying with the stronger sides for 60 minutes, but not the full 80 because of it.

When things could've gone really bad, rugby caught my interest and I really stuck with it. The sport brought me, maybe off the streets where we'd be fighting, into putting in a good effort in the rugby field where you're kind of rewarded for that rough behaviour instead of in trouble with the law.

Britain has bred many great explorers, but they seem to get so little coverage compared to soccer and rugby players.

I've played rugby at school a bit. I didn't play football at school I played football after school.
David Gilmour

As a teenager, I was always this strange mixture of kind of vice-captain of the rugby team and sensitive artist type the rest of the time. I was sent away to this public school in the middle of nowhere, and I think we managed to completely miss out on normal youth culture.
Mark Haddon

For Irishmen, there is no football game to match rugby and if all our young men played rugby not only would we beat England and Wales but France and the whole lot of them put together.
Eamon de Valera
Image
I get too excited about football and rugby.
Matthew Lewis

The tactical difference between Association Football and Rugby with its varieties seems to be that in the former the ball is the missile, in the latter men are the missiles.
Ernest Crawley

Wrestling and boxing is like Ping-Pong and rugby. There's no connection.

The Olympics are every four years and I think every athlete who competes in the Olympics wants the gold medal, and I think that's what the World Cup is for a rugby player - it's the gold medal.
