    Post Brilliant metaphor for Rugby

    I was just reading my weekly email from Rugby Heaven, and came across Ewen Mackenzies article, and found it to be a beautiful analysis, and a metaphoic description of rugby, and i thought i had to share it with those of you who don't have access to it, here it is, enjoy....

    a good summary of the game, well done Ewen. I always believed thats us Props was there to do most of the work and be 100% involved in the game itself. We do by our unselfish ways make others look good and reap the rewards (Letting them have the ball to score). We don"t need to go over or have white line fever.
    As all us forwards know we are the Gladiators of the game.

    How true.

    Sometimes my uninitiated workmates (most of my non-work friends are part of the breteren) want to know whats so interesting. Especially in a real tight scrap of a testmatch.
    The fact that they just can't get it makes me think that I've been very priveleged to experience it.
