Playing rugby at school I once fell on a loose ball and, through ignorance and fear, held on despite a fierce pummelling. After that it took me months to convince my team-mates I was a coward.

Me? As England's answer to Jonah Lomu? Joanna Lumley, more likely.

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

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

I know that Martin Johnson [the England coach] was in the stands, but I didn't feel it was up to me to impress them. He and his assistant [Brian Smith] were here to support me.
Jonny Wilkinson

It's basically the same, just darker.
Alan Kulwicki

I never comment on referees and I'm not going to break the habit of a lifetime for that prat.
Ron Atkinson

I prefer rugby to soccer. I enjoy the violence in rugby, except when they start biting each other's ears off.
Elizabeth Taylor

In an environment where everybody's jersey is up for grabs, like what Joe Schmidt is currently doing with Ireland in rugby, a massive competitive environment is created every night at training, every day in the gym and every day, believe it or not, in the tactical computer room.

Remember the look in the eyes of the Aussies and the Kiwis yesterday - I don't want to see that here.

Sport was an obvious favourite of mine, and not only golf. I was, and still am, a big rugby fan.
Rory McIlroy

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.

I don't know if it can happen, but apparently I might get divorced before I get married.
Brett White

Britain is obviously one of the world powers and they bombed the World Trade Centre, which is a landmark in itself, and over in Britain you've got Buckingham Palace and the Eiffel Tower, which are big buildings, so to speak.
Robbie Kearns

I come from a sports family and my husband is a rugby player.

Sure there have been injuries and deaths in boxing - but none of them serious.
Alan Minter

Your hands can't catch what your eyes can't see.

It's a dimissive term to say the Irish team are plucky because it rings back to the old days when we went out and gave it a lash, set our hair on fire and ran after the opposition for 20 minutes and, if they survived that, they beat us by 50 points.
Eddie O'Sullivan

It's the first time I've been cold for seven years. I was never cold playing rugby league.
Jonathan Davis
Image
He's like a demented ferret up a wee drainpipe.
Bill McLaren

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

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

Not too many people know how hard I have worked since I broke my jaw. I have been flogging myself on the training paddock.
Andrew Johns

So impressed with John Mitchell. His response to this attack has been courageous and brilliant! I wish him and the Lions all the best!
