Btw, when many American soldiers moved downunder during WWII neither wanted to play the others Football so a combined game of American Football and Australian Rules called Austus Football was formed ( Aussie Rules International ). Maybe you Yanks should start it up again in the states to put some action back into your game  |
Funny you mentioned that. When I was a wee lad back in 1979, I attended an international boy scout jamboree in Sweden (actually, the XV World Jamboree was cancelled since it was originally scheduled to take place in Iran, so the world jamboree that year was called Dalajamb and held in Sweden) and we (the Americans) played a few games of Rugby with the Brit contingent.
The overall outcome was surprising, given that the game is a product of GB.
