That makes me all twitchy to play. There's a reason I don't watch rugby very often.

I mean, really, really twitchy to play.

Ok - I'll admit this I'm just not man enough to play that sport. I like my teeth and joints too much!

SUJO Pierre!

My old team used to play the Hamilton, ON team pretty frequently, and I've spent more than one night with dubious company in Canada.

I have a friend that plays in a local rugby league. He's always trying to get me to play.

Every time, I tell him that I am going to stick to boxing, Judo and MMA because they're safer...
