Well as a NZ rugby tragic I concur. Absolutely f.n hilarious 👍 If the Wallabies need any pointers to improve their game just call NZ. Anyone will do, we all have positive feedback 😂
You should show this to your P.E. teacher. If The Guy Who Decides can explain things better than the provided video, the people who put together the video are incompetent.
Thank you for this. As a New Zealander it's always been my secret 'shame' that rugby is completely incomprehensible to me. This video hasn't helped but, l laughed a heap and at least now, l understand why l don't understand it. Also my brother is an absolute and utter ba$tard called Jason so, every time you give your Jason a hard time, it makes my little heart sing and chips another piece away from the years of bullying and spite l endured as the much younger sister of a psychopath.
@@phydeux True. This is my favourite explanation of the rules of cricket. Cricket: As explained to a foreigner... You have two sides, one out in the field and one in. Each man that's in the side that's in goes out, and when he's out he comes in and the next man goes in until he's out. When they are all out, the side that's out comes in and the side that's been in goes out and tries to get those coming in, out. Sometimes you get men still in and not out. When a man goes out to go in, the men who are out try to get him out, and when he is out he goes in and the next man in goes out and goes in. There are two men called umpires who stay out all the time and they decide when the men who are in are out. When both sides have been in and all the men have been out, and both sides have been out twice after all the men have been in, including those who are not out, that is the end of the game
@@littlecatfeet9064 Thank you. There's still some emotional scars but, both our parents have been gone for years now so, l never have to see or interact with him.
Amazing how Jimmy manages to be 2 completely different people even though the only difference is the glasses. Oh and the drinking, the spitting of the drink and the almost incoherent utterances.
As someone who knows nearly nothing about Rugby (yes, I'm an American), I truly appreciate this description of the sport. Makes me understand better than any actual tutorial, or live game, ever would. This is UA-cam Gold right here
Fun fact: it's called a try and a conversion because it used to be no points and only gave you an opportunity to score points (converting the try into points)
@@JamesDavy2009 his generation? Surely he's not a gen x like myself. Must have a great skin regime. Oh hang on. And younger? Sorry I'm not getting it. Too many tackles 🤣
Love the only differences is the glasses, a la clark kent effect! Seemingly took the idea from "pitch meeting" guy, but at least he wears different shirts, & even hair a little
It's simple, the brick walls make a huddle like penguins. The attacking team will try to waddle the huddle towards the opponents line. If the huddle does not waddle enough, the ref can tell them to end the huddle.
As an Australian with 2 exes and former housemate who were professional rugby players this is by far the best explanation of Rugby I’ve ever heard! 😂 I have a pretty high IQ but also ADHD and it’s been explained to me dozens and dozens of times and it has never made even a little sense til now. All the stops and starts are frustratingly annoying but then again I just have no aptitude for any sports other than soccer and basketball and that 1 AFL grand final in 94. At least AFL was entertaining. No offence to the rugby players and fans but it’s so confusing and I’m glad I don’t feel so bad or alone about never having understood the game. 😂 Thanks as always Guy Who Decides and Jason.
Which is why, as someone who’s played at a decent enough rep level to have played with pros from both rugby codes in Aus, League will alway just be the better form of rugby over Union 😂 (what he’s talking about here). They cut out the nonsense and got on with playing footy!
@@CommissionerManu I thought "footy" in aussie is that local game with oval fields and (rolls eyes) goalposts everywhere, becuase that is so much more practical.
@@racketman2u not quite, it depends on the state. In AFL areas, footy is what you described, in Rugby League areas, league will be called footy, and some people will more casually refer to union as footy as well. A bit like people will call soccer footy in the UK. Some people will also call soccer footy within their communities here too, where they know people will understand what they’re talking about. Aussie English does some fun regional things at times
@racketman2u "footy" in Aussie is all the games that brick walls play with an egg shaped ball (of which I think there are three that are played within our borders). That's all I know and all I care about any of them!
Another, even drunker Guy Who Decides laid on the floor contradicting him. *"Theres 15 on a team"* 'tHIrTeEn' *"And you make a bridge!"* 'SOunDs shit, Jus rOLl it bAck'
Rugby is such a teachers game. You get 5 points for a try and 2 for a combersion and then 3 for a penalty kick. Its like algebra and times tables where you get to dump tackle the annoying kid.
As a member of the nation whose team just won the shiny, fancy, gold glass with handles & a lid, with indented scratches all over of like to thank you for creating this odd with the flattened ball where brick walls smash into each other. It is no doubt silly, but watching big men think into each other is both a great sight & even better sound
I thought they were also optionally allowed a tiny piece of bandage on their head to keep the ears from being sheared off? Or maybe it's only if a doctor has decided they are already in danger of falling off from the wear and tear? Or is that a different game?
Jason: So what happens when a player commits a foul? Guy: The referee shows a yellow card and the player has to wait off the field for ten minutes. Jason: In a penalty box? Guy: _(spit takes)_ No Jason! What are you, an idiot? It'll be called the sin-bin.
Really missed a trick here. "There are 15 people on a team unless theres 13. Then the men make a bridge unless they don't. They you keep running with the ball forwards unless you only do it 6 times.
Point of contention: originally you would not get points if you got the ball to the end. Scoring a try just meant you were allowed to try to get points by kicking it through the goal posts. It's called a conversion because, if you kicked the ball through the posts, you converted the try into a point. Honestly, I think that's a better way to do it.
I've missed Jason and the Guy who Decides😂
"me too"
Me too!
Meeeee tooo

Australia will be back, greetings from England
As a South African, I can confirm our thoughts on this year regarding rugby may differ. Cricket on the other hand...
I now cannot get the image of a brick wall in cheerleader outfits out of my mind! 😂😂😂
Thank you for that image!😂
Lol, I’m doing rugby in P.E. right now in school, I feel that this video would have explained the rules much much better than the one we watched.
You should show this to your P.E. teacher. If The Guy Who Decides can explain things better than the provided video, the people who put together the video are incompetent.
@@JamesDavy2009 I probably will to be honest
If you need to learn I suggest moving to NZ. We seem to have grasped the gist of the game 😂

This is absolutely genius. And it's great how fed up Jason is haha.

I love Rugby and I loved this.Thanks Jimmy 💖 xx
Fun fact: it's called a try and a conversion because it used to be no points and only gave you an opportunity to score points (converting the try into points)
I thought the 'try' was because it started out as 3 points. Then became 4,later, and 5 even later...
@cornelmasson4610 A common misconception. In fact, prior to 1890, games were won by goals scored.
Yep. I'm yet to find someone, other than a history tragic like me, who knows that the final score of the first rugby international was 1-0.

this is the most I have known about rugby 😆
Every kid in my school is OBSESED with rugby
Remembering how a Commodore 64 was. 😂😂
Taking a literal minute to load a game from a cassette tape and what I find funny is that it was more powerful than the computers that ran Apollo 11.
What I want to know is how Jimmy knows about the commodore 64?

Sounds about right lol 😂😂😂😂 Love your videos there hilarious
A succinct summary of how preposterous this game is! Well done! And my confirmed bias thanks you! 😂
Now I understand rugby.
Love the only differences is the glasses, a la clark kent effect! Seemingly took the idea from "pitch meeting" guy, but at least he wears different shirts, & even hair a little

Not even the guy who explains can explain a Maul…

No mention of the fact that the brick walls sniff bums at the back of the bridges. That's almost entirely what the whole game is about.
LOL
They have absolutely no shame AND people pay good money to watch them doing it. A XXX sport if ever there was one.

Confirmation of what I always suspected - Rugby rules are very confusing 🤷🏼♀️
About as confusing as all the other football codes.
A classic line from a classic movie. 'It's all in the vibe' 😂
These make my day, better than the sponsered scripted stuff.

It was a popular computer for its time.
Sounds like a great explanation 😅

Greatest sport of all time even if Jimmy has made us sound like clowns
As an American.....I'm so confused.
Missed opportunity to say the 10 minutes off the field for a yellow card is called the sin bin.
What sort of a sport is it where the main way to score points is called a "try-hard"
... accurate
Sorry did he just blend Union and League into one video?
