In the U.K. the independent broadcasters get a few ad breaks in before the game starts, so that you get an advert break free 40min period of play. Normally there is 2 further ad breaks in the 10min half time and then another uninterrupted 2nd half of the game. The BBC (British Broadcasting Corporation) normally only shows the big international test matches, ie friendly games (which are never friendly), 6 nations games or the World Cup tournament games and because the BBC is funded by our TV liecence money(£170 a year) there are no Advert breaks at all.

You should watch the Six Nations Championship. It is an annual men's rugby union competition. The participants are: England, Scotland, Wales, Ireland, France and Italy. It runs from the beginning of February to nearly the end of March. Each team plays each team, so together there are 15 matches.

OK, a bit of historical context regarding scoring and scoring nomenclature. Originally you only scored points for kicking the ball between the uprights and over the cross bar after "touching down". The act of touching down in itself had no score, but allowed you to "try" and kick the ball between the posts, hence the name "try". You were in fact "converting" the try into points if the kick was successful. It was then agreed that the act of scoring a try was more difficult, and indeed more of a team effort, and so should have a score of it's own. So a try scored 3 points, and the conversion 2 points. Eventually the try was increased to 5 points, to separate it in value from the drop goal (3 points), so there is now the hierarchy of scoring based on difficulty of achievement. The drop goal is so named, kind of obviously, because the ball is dropped to the ground by the kicker and kicked as it touches the ground, on the bounce so to speak, and driven between the uprights and over the cross bar. I hope that this helps you to understand the weird scoring...

Regarding "the rugby player gets the girl", at many of the clubs that I played against (and the club that I played for), the clubhouse bar would be packed with single women after the game, waiting for the players to come out of the changing rooms. It was the girls who fought for the rugby players. One girlfriend, that I met away from the rugby club, when she found out I was a rugby player, said she was pleased, because she no longer had to fight to get a rugby player. Mind you, she always got to the bar after the game to make sure no one else tempted me. It was a great life - no wonder I loved the game.

@@booradley8895 Because American Football is derived from Rugby - where the ball literally needs to be touched down onto the ground past the goal line, under control, and with downward pressure. In order for a Try to be scored, the ground, the ball, and the player's hand must all be in contact at the same time over the goal line. You can't just waltz over the line with the ball like in NFL and take a bow before all of your supporters. You haven't placed the ball onto the ground yet! You haven't "touched down" yet! Quick! Make sure the referee sees you do it! I don't know why they call it a touchdown when the "touching" and "down" parts were lost long ago. But, why is it called "Football" when only the "special teams" actually kick the ball!? Let's have a game of catch ... now we'll call it "Football" - lol

@@Wagoo yes - the "extra point" (2 points) is taken parallel to where the try is scored. So - a touchdown in the corner will result in a difficult kick from the edge of the field. Whereas, a touchdown under the goalposts will result in a pathetically easy extra 2 points directly in front of the goalposts. I wish American Football would adopt this rule - because the "extra point" is a meaningless nuisance that holds up the game.

@@jazzx251 Exactly,a big part of the skill is not only getting a Try (touchdown) but where. Often that "pathetically easy" front of goalposts kick you mention has been won by someone taking the much harder choices when going for the try to make it easier to get those extra points. There's the drop goal choice as well,just punting the ball over the bar,but that's 2 points and back to the centre of the pitch to re-start,try and resulting kick goal is 5 points.

And I love seeing how stoked Americans get for skills and performances in sports outside their country. You guys were so psyched watching this and your reactions to some of these plays and your appreciation of the skill levels for a sport you're not massively familiar with is a pleasure to watch.

One game I was playing on the wing, and the snow and mist was so bad I could only see 1 or 2 guys along the backs at any time - went many minutes at a time without ever seeing the ball. The guy one down the line from me had to be taken off at half time with frostbite! Still finished the game - lost heavily as ever. Was good fun.

Nice job guys Just some info to help you when watching rugby: 1. Placing the bawl with downward pressure behind the goal line is called a try and is worth 5 points. 2. When a try is scored the scoring team is also entitle to a kick at goal in line with where the try was scored (this is why players will try to score as close to the posts as possible to make the follow up kick easier). This is called a conversion and is worth and extra 2 points. 3. A team may also choose to kick at goal when the other team has bean penalized for an infringement of some sort. This is called a penalty (penalty goal) and is worth 3 points. 4. A player may also drop the ball in front of him and kick the ball at the post as it makes contact with the ground (on the bounce). This is called a drop goal and can be done at any time. it is worth 3 points.

The overlap is obvious and we need a bb coach out here( Rugby countries) to help with deception with ball in hand.

The phrase "touchdown" surely came from Rugby - where you actually have to physically ground the ball over the touchline, otherwise it doesn't count. Somehow - the American version simply allowed you to carry the ball over the plane of the goal-line .. and call it a "Touchdown!" Also - in rugby, you can throw the ball anywhere except forwards! .. But you can kick the ball anywhere you want.

Try equals 5 points... Try conversion (kick for poles) equal 2 points and a drop goal (dropping the ball and kicking it for poles) equals 3 points drop goals normally happens in open play where as the conversion is a placed kick of a tee then you also have a penalty kick for poles is 3 point and also a placed kick

1. Try (touchdown) = 5 points. 2. The kick at the posts after a try - Conversion (field goal) = 2 points. 3. A kick at goal after an infringement by the opposing team - Penalty Kick (field goal) = 3 points. 👍🏻

With Rugby it’s more difficult because to pass the you have to pass the ball behind you, you can’t pass forward like in the NFL.

That kick on 3:06 is called a drop kick. You can do a drop kick anytime, anywhere you want to but the ball has to hit the ground first before you kick it. So you drop the ball let it bounce from the floor then kick it, its pretty hard to get it in since your opponents still gets to rush on you. And you can only get 3pts from it. A try is only when you made a touchdown in the goal line with the ball touching the ground. Remember, the ball has to touch the ground if your arm(that has the ball) gets held up by any player from the other team then that cant be awarded as a try. Every try(5pts), theres a conversion(goal kick) right afterand its 2pts for the conversion. the spot of where you do the kick from is whereever the try was thats where you kick from. If it was from the corner by the side line youll kick from there. If its in the middle straight at the goal youll kick from there. Thats why a try(5pts) is always best to be done in the middle of them post and make the converion(2pts) easier for your kicker and get that extra pts.😊👌

Don't forget, these players are calling to each other all the time, so you know your pass options by listening to the players around you (yes, behind, but still) you know where they are and how fast they are coming.

The best way I can describe rugby to an American Football fan, (im British and a huge NFL fan! More so than a fan of rugby) is a non stop flea flicker play. Also, rugby league, if you get tackled it kinda stops the play, they get up and quickly roll the ball back and the game carries on, the team with possession has 5 attempts (tackles) to get to the goal line, if they don’t and are tackled 5 times, possession changes over. This is probably the version of rugby that translates to American football best. Think of it as you get 5 downs but not for ten yards, you have 5 downs to score.

Just a FYI (and I am by no means an expert) the difference between the physical try and the kick is although you can go for a drop kick goal whenever in game (3pts) it’s usually set up after they make the physical try (5pts) exactly where the ball is placed for the try is the angle the ball must then be kicked from to attempt to convert it for the full 7 points as the goal kick is worth an additional 2 points if successful. Love your guys reactions with British humour and rugby as well as the football chants. Great job 👍🏻👍🏻 🇬🇧

Rugby in the UK is a type of football - English public (posh) schools in the victorian period played football but each school had it's own rules so therefore the game was split into halves with one half say Eton school rules of football against Rugby school rules, the Rugby school rules were when the ball is picked up and the football is played after a try is scored (hence a try at scoring, but later tries became points too). In the end somebody said we have to fix the rules for everyone and therefore we have the Football association inventing Association football (soccer, which is actual an English word and not an Americanism). Somebody else can tell you about Rugby Union and league splitting but thats not my thing.

A try is a touchdown essentially, worth five points, plus the opportunity at a conversion which is a kick taken from a kicking tee (I think the tee is optional but not kicked from the hand), kick taken in line with where the try was scored, hence why they often run under the posts before they touch the ball down where possible, placing the kicker directly in front of the goal. The successful conversion adds a further two points. A drop goal is a field goal and worth 3 points. A penalty kick at goal from a tee is three points, however if you're awarded a penalty you have various options to choose from. You can kick for goal, kick for touch, where you kick the ball into touch, as close to the try line as possible, retaining possession for the throw in, or you can choose to take a scrum, with your team feeding the ball in. The kick to goal is probably the go to option nowardays unless you're a lot of points down as three quick points keeps up scoring rhythm.

When they kick it between the upright posts it’s called a drop kick. It’s worth 3 points. A try is worth 5 points ant the kick immediately after the try is called the conversion, it’s an additional two points added to the try. So a team can get 7 points from a try.

After an attacker grounds the ball over the try line, it's called a try and is worth 5 points in Rugby Union and 4 points in Rugby League. In both games, they then get to do a place kick for an extra 2 points by place kicking the ball between the posts, called a conversion. Well over a hundred years ago, when the game began, the crowd would see the player dive over the line to score and they would then yell out 'try, try' meaning to try to kick the goal as well. Over time, the action of scoring over the line became known as a 'try'. When a drop kick goes between the goals, its worth either 1 or 2 points, depending on how far away the kicker is. This is called a field goal. So, you can go over for a try, kick the 'conversion' or kick a field goal. These are the only ways to score in both games. The ball must travel backwards or flat when passed, never forward. Certain rules govern where and how a player can be hit. There are heavy penalties for tacklers who aim for the head, twist legs and arms the wrong way, lift a player and spear his head into the ground (a spear tackle will get you sent from the field and you'll lose weeks of playtime through suspension. Same with other very dangerous tackles. 15 players a side in Rugby Union and 13 per side in Rugby League.

There is a form of rugby that has a similar downs system to NFL. It's called rugby league, in which the attacking team has 6 tackles/play to score. If they don't score possession swaps to the other team.

the kick at 8.02 was a conversion after a try (7 points). The conversion is taken as far from the center posts as the try was scored. Unlike the NFL. where the conversion is taken from directly in front of the posts.

One thing that helps with the awareness issue is that you can only be tackled if you're holding the ball. Therefore if you're not holding the ball you don't have to be as aware of opponents around you as in American football

A drop goal or a penalty goal are not tries. A try is where a player runs it into the end area behind the sticks and grounds the ball. Hand, ball and ground must all be in contact at the same time for the try to be valid.

Guys mentioned that the game stops when the ball hits the ground in NFL. That also happens in Rugby, but only if the ball is spilled forward by the attacker, after the defender collides with him. If that happens, then the referee calls a scrum, with the defending team being handed the ball at the scrum. Same thing happens if the attacking team makes a forward pass. There are no forward passes in Rugby. If the ball is spilled in line, or backwards during open play, the game continues flowing

What I find funny is in American Football it's called a "touch down" despite the fact the player doesn't actually have to touch the ball down on the ground, the point is scored the second you run over the line with it. Yet in Rugby it's called a "try" but isn't scored until the player physically puts the ball on the ground (i.e. technically he could run past the try line then run out again without putting the ball down and would score nothing)

Originally a try was worth nothing. It was called a 'try' because it allowed the team who scored it to 'try' for a goal. Because the game evolved out of football, the scoring was based around scoring goals. As late as the 1940s a drop-goal was still worth more than a try, and it wasn't until the 1970s that a try finally became the most valued scoring method.

A try is where they touch the ball down over the line (5 points). Once a try is scored you then have a chance of converting... kicking from stationary in line of where the try was touched down (2 points) so a converted try is 7 points. You can also score with a drop goal, which is a drop kick through the posts.. 3 points. All clear hoys?

I think you would enjoy watching some women’s rugby - the sevens (played on the full pitch but with 7 players instead of 15 and 7 min halves instead of 40 min) from the last Olympics had the USA go up against a tiny Japanese team. It was very entertaining in a car crash kind of way at times. Would be short enough for a KZbin video assuming the rights aren’t protected.

There are a couple of comedy tropes attached to rugby players. The first is incessant drunkenness and rowdy singing and Jackass-style pranking each other, and the second is being posh. Over here Football is the the working class game, and Rugby and Cricket are the toffs' games that are especially taught at the expensive private boarding schools we call Public schools. I know there's also a northern working class attachment to Rugby League rules, rather than Rugby union, but that's much less of a trope. The posh rugby player and loud drunk rugby player come together as the "Rugger bugger". And yes, at school, the Rugby players were the guys you especially didn't want to get into beef with.
