    What a brilliant treat to be able to watch footage from this long ago.
    Some of the tackling on this clip makes a mockery of the commonly-accepted impression that tackles are getting harder and stronger these days. Brian Lima wouldn't last five minutes against some of these boys!

    Se o USA não tivessem adaptado o rugby e criado o Football hoje ainda seriam uma potência no Rugby mundial! Acabaram ficando para trás.

    I don't buy the argument that the US wasn't good because only 3 nations competed. The US beat France 17-3 in Paris. A year later the All Blacks beat France 30-6. I think it's fair to say the US back then would have competed with the southern hemisphere better than they can today. This was before Babe Ruth made baseball legendary, before pro football gained traction and long before the NBA. Rugby was a bigger part of college sports back then and some of those Olympic players were also ex-pats.

      But also the USA rugby team for this olympics game was compound by an american football team and not rugby

      @@adrichoux Explain. American football had not fully taken off across the country. It only just professionalized in 1920, made up of teams only in the northeast and didn't stabilize until the 1930s. It also didn't reach the popularity it has today until after WWII. Meanwhile, the west coast was where rugby was strong back then, with San Francisco being the hub. If anything aided the US team back then it was the high number of expats on the team. At least today, anyway, American football players do not crossover well and usually make bad to average rugby players.

    1900 Primeira aparição do Rugby na Olimpíada o valor é digamos que regional ja que envolve só apenas países da Europa e apesar de que entre as seleções participantes duas delas França e Grã-Bretanha sempre foram e até hoje são da elite do esporte! Pódio!
    1908 Segundo torneio Olímpico do Rugby aí sim já se vê o confronto entre duas Escolas das mais importantes da modalidade Oceania representada por Nova Zelândia e Austrália versos Europa por Grã-Bretanha.
    1920 Terceiro torneio de Rugby o confronto direto de duas Escolas à Época dominantes e até hoje de muito peso na modalidade América X Europa, Estados Unidos X França Ouro e Prata!
    1924 Quarto e último torneio Olímpico do Rugby XV a repetição do confronto entre as Escolas América X Europa, Estados Unidos Bi-campeão com França e Romênia, Prata e Bronze respectivamente!

    só não seguiu em frente porque os torcedores franceses não aceitaram a derrota e invadiram o campo tentando agredir os jogadores dos EUA. Por isso o COI afastou o Rugby e o IRB preferiu manter o Rugby como um esporte amador...

      That's Stanford Basketball captain, Lefty Rogers. He broke his nose during a warm-up game in England. Even so, Lefty tackled the fastest man in rugby and French star, Adolphe Jaureguy, shockingly hard during the gold medal game. The tackle essentially started a riot in the stands.

    they werent dominant back then lol only 3 teams played in those games lol and nz and the islands didnt play in those olympics. infact none of the southern hem teams played in those games and barely any european teams played in those games. so no they werent dominant and those medals count for absolutely shite as it wasn't the best teams in the world in those games
