Man, I puked at a game after running the field for a try and got benched. I wish I had this girls coaches.

My BFF was the coach and she was fucking this girl, so she wasn't going to get benched. Also, puking is a big no-no until well after the game and maybe 3 hours into the party. I've never felt so unsafe for everyone involved than at a girls rugby party. I once did shots from a 12 foot long beer bong that had to be filled from the second floor at a rugby party.

Unless you’re King Ritchie McCaw and it’s the final of the World Cup against France in NZ and it’s 77 minutes into an 80 minute game and we (NZ) are leading by 1. RC had a yak on the sideline in between plays lol, poor fucker was dead on his feet but no way in hell he was leaving that field, short of being dead, but even then we’d have revived him and sent him back in there.

I mean, y'all are kind of famous for rugby(I'm in the desert of America and don't even follow rugby and I know about the all blacks, word gets around lol), I get why they'd keep going lol.

Didn't he also break his foot in the semifinal and pretend it was fine so he could play in the final?

I believe that’s known as a “pre-existing condition” so doesn’t count lol, kidding, yeah he busted a toe I think in the 2011 super series and hid the injury from the team and doctors etc, refused to get an x-ray done because once that happened it would have to be disclosed. My guess is he felt obligated to be on the field as the captain and as such put his health 3rd to the team (1st) and the country (2nd). It’s probably also why he is now Sir Richie McCaw, the MF earned it IMO.

You forgot to mention the broken foot?

But have you ever had to drink out of the garden watering can for a party foul? Because it has been filled through the post match party with a little bit of everything…and I mean everything.

Watering can sound like an upgrade from shooting the boot tbh. At least you’d be able to feel confident that those curly hairs definitely weren’t from someone’s ankle.

Puking was not an excuse to pause practice in wrestling. If you gotta puke, you had better run to the trash can and run back.

I once watched a woman suck a dick that was disguised as one of the udders on the cow suit worn by the Rugger standing on the table at the bar.

Maggotfest was a helluva ride before they confined the players to the fairgrounds to party at night so they didn’t destroy downtown Missoula.

The fairgrounds idea was wild cuz Anyone could go in, but no one could leave.

It ain't about coaching. It's just straight up different breed and mentality. My cousin is 5'4" and 130 lbs soaking wet. She's also a black belt in Tae Kwon Do, a rugby player, and mother of 2 boys from her 6'3" Nordic husband. I have a big head, but those boy's heads make watermelons look small.

My vagina just winced thinking about those heads in conjunction with her small frame...
