Legend has it that in 1843 at Rugby School in Warwickshire, England, a student called William Webb Ellis one day ignored the rules of football, caught the ball in his arms and ran with it towards the goal line, more or less inventing rugby as he did so. In 1845 the first codified rules of the game were drawn up by the school's prefects and the game's popularity spread throughout the UK in the 1850s and '60s. It's now a sport that is followed by millions of fans throughout the world. This little compilation bring together 101 quotes, mostly from players, but also coaches, spectators, commentators, actors and comedians, and reveals the humour and the passion in the sport.

Book Synopsis A Full Back Slower Than Your Average Prop by : Ian Smith
Download or read book A Full Back Slower Than Your Average Prop written by Ian Smith and published by Birlinn Ltd. This book was released on 2019-10-10 with total page 268 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Listed as one of the five worst international selections ever, and described in a book about Scottish rugby as 'a full back slower than your average prop', Ian Smith cheerfully won eight caps for Scotland in a career that saw him score every point for his team on his debut in an historic victory over South Africa (and in so doing became the first Scottish full back to score a Test try) and defeated a star-studded England team to lift the Calcutta Cup at Murrayfield in the 1970 Five Nations. One of eight international full backs to have come out of Heriot's FP, Smith also played for a dashing, innovative Edinburgh University side that revolutionised attacking back play. But this book is so much more than a story of a fleeting Test career. It is a window to another time, when a player could appear, as Smith did, for his club's third XV and two weeks later make his international debut for his country. And then, eight Tests later, return to his club where he was only considered good enough to play for the second XV.

Book Synopsis Rugby's Great Split by : Tony Collins
Download or read book Rugby's Great Split written by Tony Collins and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2012-10-12 with total page 309 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since it’s first publication, Rugby’s Great Split has established itself as a classic in the field of sport history. Drawing on an unprecedented range of sources, this deeply researched and highly readable book traces the social, cultural and economic divisions that led, in 1895, to schism in the game of rugby and the creation of rugby league, the sport of England’s northern working class. Tony Collins’ analysis challenges many of the conventional assumptions about this key event in rugby history – about class conflict, amateurism in sport, the North-South divide, violence on the pitch, the development of mass spectator sport and the rise of football. This new edition is expanded to cover parallel events in Australia and New Zealand, and to address the key question of rugby league’s failure to establish itself in Wales. Rugby’s Great Split is a benchmark text in the history of rugby, and an absorbing case study of wider issues – issues of class, gender, regional and national identity, and the impact of the commercialization and recent professionalization of rugby league. This insightful text is for anyone interested in Britain’s social history or in the emergence of modern sport, it is vital reading.
