'elf and safety innit

By laughing at the rugby team?

No. Pole vault.



I wasn't there to see it, but I can think of only one way to get a black eye in the pole vault. Kid needs some serious neurological attention if you ask me.

The poor sod... bet it hurt!

When I went to school we probably did twice as much rugby as football.
Only time anyone ended up getting injured enough to warrant calling an ambulance was when playing football.

BBC News - Call to ban rugby scrums in schools

Bloody bedwetters.

Can't see Cameron and his chums agreeing to that - It would mean also banning the Eton wall game

Eton wall game

Hilarious - that reads like something out of Private Eye.

Good game, good game, didn't he do well?

Oh please, what a pile of tulipe... English rugby is in a bad enough state as it is

It was the bed wetting, namby pamby soft-as-tulipe Scots what said this, not the stout hearted, solid oak English types

A mixed bag of results recently but not as bad as it could have been - England may be on the way up but we'll have to wait for the autumn to see if the trend has been set

FYI we had one serious injury during my time at school - a broken neck from a collapsed scrum that left the 15 year old in a wheelchair - he eventually topped himself aged 20 by pushing his wheelchair into a garden pond and drowning... heartbreaking but an isolated incident

While they are at it, they should ban hockey sticks from hockey - how much damage can a hockey stick cause? .

Fom personal experience 4 stitches to a open wound around the eyebrow - but no reason to ban hockey either

Your paranoia has reached epidemic proportions now. Which is good. For it injects a humour into your posts that is otherwise distinctly lacking.

FYI, the only "solid oak" thing about you is your head.

I can see this actually. Ban rugby, increase the number of football academies. After all, footy is called "the beautiful game". Rugby is just dull.

I can't see anyone biting.

Must do better.
