Women's Rugby is BRUTAL!! These girls were definitely throwing out some serious hits! Our love for Rugby has only been enhanced with each video we do! We hope you enjoy our first look at Women's Rugby too! Please drop a Like if you. Thanks everyone!
Just to confuse you there are 4 Rugby World Cups going on - Women’s Rugby Union in New Zealand and Men’s, Woman’s and Wheelchair Rugby League in the UK.
As of this morning UK time. The England Women's team are the most successful Rugby Union team ever, they have gone on a 29 games winning streak, and to be honest it doesn't look like it will stop anytime soon at this year's Women's rugby union world cup. They beat the main opposition very convincingly twice on the bounce late last year the Black Ferns of New Zealand.
That's a good way to some up rugby 🏉 🤕 yes football in the 80's was more physical and not what it's turned into the acting for an Oscar whenever they trip over. (Watch the hate come my way for saying that 🙄🙄🙄😁😁
@@robn71 You are quite right Rob. Back in the day when you had players like Tommy Smith playing with a Leather Case Ball, it was a totally different game and they never got much Money for their efforts, it was all about the love of the game and loyalty to their team.
@@stephensmith4480 Many of them had to work for a living as well to pay the bills because playing football paid so little. They'd probably be turning in the graves looking at today's spoiled players.
Woman's rugby is awesome. At the moment England is the number one team in the work LD. I am a die hard rugby fan and I watch women's rugby all the while.
So glad you’re enjoying women’s rugby. 80 minutes. No pads. No special teams. Much faster than American football. It lovely to watch you both travel the world via You Tube. Debbie has really coming into her own as she’s taking a higher profile now than when she first started. Being a Brit in the US, I have to root for Wales in the US v. Wales first round footie game.
England Womens have the longest unbeaten record(28 matches) I believe... Go on girls!!!! 🏴🏴🏴👍😊 (Although they were playing Australia this morning and I haven't watched the game yet... 😂)
@@YallNotWhite_YourPINK And Yet England still hold the world record for unbeaten games.Does your your team? Are still number one in the world. Are your team? So I'm LMAO@ the fact you can't spell. Failed in your attempt at a put me down on the England roses. And don't know how to use captitals when starting a sentence or in a sentence. And no I am not an England supporter either!
I know a young lady who plays and coaches for my town's ladies and underage teams, she is an absolute stunner to look at except on a Sunday morning in the pub, when wearing about a bottle of concealer which doesn't always work. Often wonder what some of her patients think on a Monday, she is a Nurse at a local GP Practice.
Aussie Rules is a completely different game - a cross between Rugby and Football. As a Brit fan, I would say it is completely brutal (there is a good reason why their shirts do not have collars or sleeves), and makes American football look like a game of pat-a-cake.
Going on at the moment up to semi -finals between France and New Zealand and England vs Canada. Who just beat US. England are the team to beat. They haven't lost in so many years
I have a friend whose niece currently plays for the England team. I have just started to follow the team and wow they are good. Never watched rugby before that and the nearest rugby club is in the next road to my house!
My wife, a Filipina, has a NZ All Blacks official players shirt that was a gift from... the nephew of one of the best All Black Captains. Buck Shelford..
The large woman in red is "built like a brick sh** house". A lot of these tackles are legal within rugby. They have tightened the rules over the past few years, and some are not legal such as high tackles and risks to the neck. Colours: England - White, New Zealand - Black, Australia - Green & Yellow, Wales - Red, Italy - Blue/Blue & White, Scotland - Blue & White, Tonga - Red/Red & White, South Africa - Green & White, France - Blue & White. Colours can change if they clash with opponent. There are others.
Scotland, Italy and France are all different shades of blue; any white bits are just 'this year's fashion addition, it will be gone next year. Australia and RSA prefer 'gold' and green.
It would be a contentious argument, but it's between England and Wales in the UK. Italy haven't really been in the running, but do shine occasionally. As of 22 October 2022, England mens, are currently world #5, Scotland #6, Wales #7 and Italy #14 (USA 19). Women's world rankings England #1 (by a significant margin), Italy #5, USA #7, Wales #9 and Scotland #10. These are fluid and not fixed.
Being brutally candid "it's between England and Wales" if you give Wales a 25-point start. They are showing some signs of moving on in some areas with contracted players but the gap is still big. In the Women's Six Nations it is England or France; but even in this match-up France have not won since the Grand Slam victory in 2018. I want to see the other European teams pulling closer to England and France for many more 'real games'.
You have to understand, that due to many factors (not just our small size) Wales will always struggle to compete with much larger and wealthier nations, in most sports. Both in the Mens and Women’s domains. However, we are also quite good at punching above our weight and I hope that in the next few years, with added investment and more professionally contracted players, Wales’ women can start to be genuinely competitive. England are just so far ahead though and that’s a credit to the RFU and the English rugby public for nurturing and getting behind the game there.
@@welshed I think Wales are moving in the right direction and one thing the3y will undoubtedly gain is the level of fitness and stamina that full time professionals use to their advantage. In my lifetime Welsh rugby has always had flair, athleticism and sheer bloody-mindedness.
This is fun watching you two ladies. You thought it was a throat punch, no it is called a "Hand off" . Perfectly legal , 9ne hand against a whole body. Tackling is a bit different, it is preferable to tackle oround the legs, thus immobilising the player. Around the neck is a ,no no, penalty.yes. any tackle that the referee deals dangerous will be a penalty. Dangerous tackling is a yellow or red card. Yellow a warning, red off the field. Love your enthusiasm.
Im from nz and we love our rugby & especially our ladies team. Ive watched so many american reactions to this vid and this is my absolute fav!! Actual reactions and analysis & sooo funny as well
I believe a general rule of thumb for legal tackles in rugby union is not above the shoulder line, the player being tackled must be in possession of the ball and it shouldn’t be dangerous (clearly they have a different definition of danger than me because my spidey senses say being on the same pitch as these ladies is hazardous to my health 😂)
*Bradford Bulls Women's RLFC* won the first ever *Women's Super League* in 2017. They also won the *Women's Challenge Cup* in 2017 too. *Bradford Bulls RLFC* were also the first professional Rugby League team to launch a Professional Women's Rugby League team with the formation of the *Bradford Bulls Women's RLFC* in 2017.
To fully understand rugby you really need to see some scrums and see the relationship between the forwards( the ones in the scrum.) and the backs. Watch some line outs. And the difference between rucks and mauls. The kicking game can literally win world cups.
There is an England Roses Rugby flag flying outside my house, attracts derision from my neighbours as I live in Cork. It's all just great craic. The Roses is the mens team, it's the Rosettes. Australia just got a pasting by them.
@@gallowglass2630 I am a bit considerate when it comes to England Cricket or other sports, a St. George Cross or Union Flag is out but do fly the Standard of Richard III, three gold lions passant on a Maroon ground (now a bit pinkish). Just wish that there was an official British and Irish Lions rugby flag.
England's women just beat Australia 41-5 in a world cup match. They look like a good bet to win the competition. Women's football (soccer) is also awesome and the English women are looking good in that sport too, having just won the Euros and beaten the USA, who have been the best team in the world until recently. Cheers from the UK.
England to Win....England play in White, Scotland generally in Dark Blue, Wales tend to play in Red, Ireland generally in Green, Italy generally in Light Blue, Black is New Zealand and Australia Yellow and Green i believe, but there are many other countries. I love rugby. funny to see you so excited and dont believe how brutal the game can get.
@@williamtraep2984 Yeah it's slowly changing. I can remember growing up watching players playing provincial games or test matches with a broken arm ,ribs ,or a broken nose. It used to be really brutal.
Hey Ladies Yes all legal tackles. You tackle hard. I'd suggest if you like your noses where they are not to play. Ears and noses get displaced easily from playing!!
Love your videos.When you grow up with these things,they seem "normal",then when you see the reaction of someone from outside the UK,it makes you wonder if we're a little bit bonkers.If you're looking for recommendations of something else to watch,check out a guy called Fred Dibnah,sadly no longer with us, but he was an absolute legend. A steeplejack who didn't believe in using a harness when climbing chimneys,even if they were over a hundred feet tall.Its scary just watching him.Or,Lulu the baby elephant on "Blue Peter",a kids TV programme, you'll have a laugh. Keep those videos coming ladies.
I'm a women's rugby player whoonly just found your channel, and I love watching Americans react to rugby so I've been watching your rugby videos. With the tackles you didn't think we're legal, the first few were because their back didn't go past the horizontal. The one where she was flipped was highly illegal and the tackler was likely given a red card. Basically the person being tackled can not have their head below their bum
The girl with the shaved head is Heather Fisher, seen here playing for England. It's not shaved, she suffers from alopecia. Great player, very physical, now retired.🏴🏉 Some of these girls received what is light-heartedly referred to as a Hospital Pass, where they get clobbered due to a badly timed or high pass, leaving them exposed to a crushing tackle.😖😵💫
Yes you can pick someone off their feet but can not lift their feet above their head. I think that girl that sumersaulted was more accident by momentum. And the pulled hair is more like accidental entanglement. It's a fast game mistakes happen.
That AIG women's All Blacks shirt has some amazing crazy detail you can't see on this video as it's very subtle. It's absolutely stunning with Maori design.. my wife was actually wearing it yesterday. If by any chance Mario Selford is a subscriber, thanks big fella. 👍🏻
love both your reactions. you can pick a player up, as long as their body does not go over horizontal so they do not land on their heads. if you pick a player up, it is your responsibility to put them down safely yes you can kick at any time. which adds to defence headache, but you never want to give possesion of the ball away. but always kick to gain territory lol' thank you for yorur reactions
It's about time you got around to this. So glad you did. Our (USA) women are usually a bit better than they are currently. Covid set them back some due to lack of playtime. The Eagles have been a top 5 team but as of today have dropped down to around 8th. One thing that holds us back is our size. It can be quite difficult to get together as a group when players live and play thousands of miles apart. The England team can gather together by, at most, a 2 hour train ride. The Red Roses are playing the best I've seen. They have an incredible pack and their backs are quite good and have multiple players that kick very well.
That tackle you thought was illegal, is in fact legal! You can drive a ball carrier backwards in a tackle provided you don't drop them on their head!..And as an old Rugby player, (easily picked, no front teeth and a bent nose!) I would never play against the girls! They are far more violent than we blokes ever were..Pro wrestlers would flee for their lives having pants accidents!
My partner played for England years ago, do not mess with a rugby lady! She still gets annoyed when England lose, even at me when Wales beat us because I'm half Welsh.
Love your reaction to this :) Regarding kicking; yes, you can kick whenever you want but you have to chase it yourself, or the receiving player must be behind you when you kick. There is also kicking for touch, or territory, but they are different scenarios. Hair pulling is not allowed (penalty offence) but it does happen; suppose it is too tempting.
The Muppets: this is bound to be a Rugby 7s tourney where people dress up in outlandish cossies. 7s is is sped up version (if you can believe that!) : seven aside, seven minute halves, quick mayhem.
I love watching rugby, if you think that women's rugby is some how gentler, you will be disappointed. Women's rugby - "give no quarter" - "No quarter expected" They will come out with all guns blazing and give their all. Respect to women's Rugby.
The massively ignored by the media *Men's Rugby League World Cup* is also on... At the same time as the *Women's Rugby (Union) World Cup.* The *Men's Rugby League World Cup* was originally supposed to take place in October and November 2021.
Kicking the ball in play for points is called a “field goal” and can be utilised during the game. Kicking for field position allows the offence to apply pressure and panic to opponents defending their goal line. The kick can be used as a pass but, it can only be regathered by the kicker or any teammate that is behind the kicker (onside) when the kick is made. Fitness strength and speed are very important, if the body is exhausted, the brain doesn’t function properly and mistakes are made… Enjoy watching the woman’s rugby World Cup
You know you’ve now got Ladies Rugby in the US now as well as Mens it all over the UA-cam channels where people have found that anyone can play Rugby a learn how to be part of a team. Famously Rugby is defiantly a, no matter how it looks, a friendly and “we’ve won but isn’t it our turn to buy the Pints” type of game. Rugby clubs in the UK and elsewhere normally start in villages or schools where you end up having a clue house (obviously with some barrels of bear a bar and tables and chairs) and a rugby pitch which is marked out and with the posts standing proud. There are local leagues with competitive competitions going up to county level. This is where the big teams get their new players from. From UA-cam I get the impression that the team coaches try and get an instant team from older NFL players and this is good as far as it goes but they need to start a grass roots catchment, ensuring the local primary and secondary schools start the children off early to learn the very basics of the game by playing stealing ribbons. Basically the kids play a team game each of them having three ribbons loosely fixed to their shorts obviously the opposite team have to steel a ribbon off the other teams players. No tackling and no slapping, kicking or pulling of hair, just the basic team game. Even they reach about 14 / 15 then they start to get taught tackling, how to fall and also what not to do, like tackling around the neck or head. I was taught myself at school years and years ago. According to the vids on UA-cam a lot of the reasoning behind Rugby in America is aimed at getting kids out of the usual spiral of urban dickey, to start showing them there is a greater thing to aspire to, I think this is a good thing but it needs to be widened I think to all children.
You had clips from women’s 7’s, 15aside and rugby league, so slightly different rules. It’s worth watching the Black ferns, or the English as they are brutal. Also watch the black ferns Haka.
The all white is England, the all black are New Zealand, with the complete upside down tackle that was a foul as can be seen by the ref in red holding her arm up and blowing the whistle. All other tackling was fair, these girls are not sissies. These outtacks are all very well and fun but to understand the game l suggest you watch a complete game from start to finish. A game is far too long for your channel but just the two of you in private will give you an understanding of the game.
I think that England has the best woman's rugby team, but maybe I'm being biast. Even though I'm English, I now live in Wales, so when it comes to rugby, I'm in a bit of a pickle as they say here in the UK lol 😂 hope that you enjoy the world cup.
The somersault tackle at 7:20 was definitely illegal, and I think would have earned a red card for the tackler. You cannot lift the ball carrier's legs above their head and dump her/him. The tackler is responsible for the outcome of the tackle and the safety of their opponent. If a player hits the ground with head or neck, you are in trouble. BTW the first oft repeated tackle on the English winger was perfectly legal, but it did cause a long-term injury problem for her.
The last time I played was in school. (before either of you great ladies were around) and Debbie summed up my whole philosophy. "Don't give me the ball!" Still. Love your response.
One day when I was working in Auckland NZ for a civil engineering company and our new, that very day, depot manager was welcomed in a small boardroom with about 12 of us already in it by 8 to 10 Maori employees doing a Haka they'd written themselves It was full noise and nothing was held back It freaked me out as I wasn't expecting it and holy hell was that an awesome experience The depot Kapa Haka group got sponsored to competitions by the company after that The English translation of the Black Ferns Haka (Ko Ūhia Mai - Let It Be Known) is on you tube and is pretty cool too (stolen from a newspaper) Ko Ūhia Mai - English Let it be known Who are these women It’s the Black Ferns rumble From Hineahuone, Hinetitama and Hinenui te po we came To transfer from the heavens to the world of enlightenment Life force from above Life force from below The gathering clouds The mountains that pierce the sky Let us proceed To the seas From the corners of the island To the neighbouring islands And around the world You stand tall and proud Women of strength Who will bear the future The Black Ferns of New Zealand Rise and press on When the challenge arrives We will gather and unite together Strength together It will be done
Yes you can kick the ball when you wish, however, players on your own side can not chase the ball until they are either passed by the kicker or they start off behind the kicker on the pitch..
Love the intro 🤣Had to watch that a few times made me laugh. Most of the tackles you saw were legal but the flip is not because it is deemed dangerous if the feet go higher than the head therefore it is illegal but it still happens. Not sure who said it but Football (Soccer) is 90 minutes of pretending to be hurt whilst Rugby is 80 minutes of pretending not to be hurt. I watch women's rugby in particular the internationals. The World Cup has thrown up some fantastic games. Most of the games you have shown are internationals but I also think one or two clips were Rugby League may be wrong on that, The match with the women in black and white hoops against the team in all black was New Zealand (All black referred to as the Black Ferns I believe) versus the Barbarians (black and white hoops). The Barbarians are an invitational team mostly made of of international players from around the world. Love, hugs and prayers from Sussex, UK
You always remember that one hit that çhanged the match, the ball-carriers eyes widen as they realized how much trouble they were in. Ah the good old days.
Since the sport became professional, it is illegal to lift a person past the horizontal ( leg’s cannot be higher then their head) any direct contact with the head is and illegal tackle

Football used to rough - look at some of the old videos - Leeds United under Billy Bremner.
That's a good way to some up rugby 🏉 🤕 yes football in the 80's was more physical and not what it's turned into the acting for an Oscar whenever they trip over.

Love your videos.When you grow up with these things,they seem "normal",then when you see the reaction of someone from outside the UK,it makes you wonder if we're a little bit bonkers.If you're looking for recommendations of something else to watch,check out a guy called Fred Dibnah,sadly no longer with us, but he was an absolute legend. A steeplejack who didn't believe in using a harness when climbing chimneys,even if they were over a hundred feet tall.Its scary just watching him.Or,Lulu the baby elephant on "Blue Peter",a kids TV programme, you'll have a laugh. Keep those videos coming ladies.
I'm a women's rugby player whoonly just found your channel, and I love watching Americans react to rugby so I've been watching your rugby videos. With the tackles you didn't think we're legal, the first few were because their back didn't go past the horizontal. The one where she was flipped was highly illegal and the tackler was likely given a red card.
Basically the person being tackled can not have their head below their bum
The girl with the shaved head is Heather Fisher, seen here playing for England. It's not shaved, she suffers from alopecia. Great player, very physical, now retired.🏴🏉
Some of these girls received what is light-heartedly referred to as a Hospital Pass, where they get clobbered due to a badly timed or high pass, leaving them exposed to a crushing tackle.😖😵💫
As a previous comment look up the All Blacks doing the Hakka .... I dare say your reaction would be priceless. Luvin the videos thanks.
Yes you can pick someone off their feet but can not lift their feet above their head. I think that girl that sumersaulted was more accident by momentum. And the pulled hair is more like accidental entanglement. It's a fast game mistakes happen.
That AIG women's All Blacks shirt has some amazing crazy detail you can't see on this video as it's very subtle. It's absolutely stunning with Maori design.. my wife was actually wearing it yesterday. If by any chance Mario Selford is a subscriber, thanks big fella. 👍🏻
love both your reactions. you can pick a player up, as long as their body does not go over horizontal so they do not land on their heads. if you pick a player up, it is your responsibility to put them down safely yes you can kick at any time. which adds to defence headache, but you never want to give possesion of the ball away. but always kick to gain territory lol' thank you for yorur reactions
I've been 'picked up' twice during games..... and it's very, very embarrissing :-)
It's about time you got around to this. So glad you did.
Our (USA) women are usually a bit better than they are currently. Covid set them back some due to lack of playtime. The Eagles have been a top 5 team but as of today have dropped down to around 8th.
One thing that holds us back is our size. It can be quite difficult to get together as a group when players live and play thousands of miles apart. The England team can gather together by, at most, a 2 hour train ride.
The Red Roses are playing the best I've seen. They have an incredible pack and their backs are quite good and have multiple players that kick very well.
Loved ya vid
My granddaughter in New Zealand is playing her third season of touch rugby. She can't wait to play tackle. She's 8.
Your intro was hilarious, Natasha lived the scrum cap 😂
Thank you! ❤️
Great video! Man these girls mean business, some of those tackles were savage! Definitely makes me want to watch more of it. See you Wednesday :)
You both make me laugh so much 🤣🤣🤣 I’m a massive rugby fan and this was brilliant 😁❤️
My daughter played rugby for a short while when she was 11. Does help when the female coach is an amazing person and helpex so much
Best intro ever I laughed sooooo much. Great videos ladies thank you
Watched the 2 RWC semi finals today, 2 fantastic games, 4 great teams. England- New Zealand final. Come on England.
Queen Boudicca had her own rugby team when she defeated the Romans.
That tackle you thought was illegal, is in fact legal! You can drive a ball carrier backwards in a tackle provided you don't drop them on their head!..And as an old Rugby player, (easily picked, no front teeth and a bent nose!) I would never play against the girls! They are far more violent than we blokes ever were..Pro wrestlers would flee for their lives having pants accidents!
My partner played for England years ago, do not mess with a rugby lady! She still gets annoyed when England lose, even at me when Wales beat us because I'm half Welsh.
Brilliant reaction ladies👍👍👍🍷🍾🍷🍾🥂
Love your reaction to this :) Regarding kicking; yes, you can kick whenever you want but you have to chase it yourself, or the receiving player must be behind you when you kick.
There is also kicking for touch, or territory, but they are different scenarios. Hair pulling is not allowed (penalty offence) but it does happen; suppose it is too tempting.
The Muppets: this is bound to be a Rugby 7s tourney where people dress up in outlandish cossies. 7s is is sped up version (if you can believe that!) : seven aside, seven minute halves, quick mayhem.
41 is the 20th Anniversary of your 21st :)
That's actually more depressing! Lol
Yeah these ladies do not mess around.
I gotta watch Women's Rugby because THESE LADIES BUILT DIFFERENT 💯🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯
Aussie Rules = cross country basketball, that's the closest approximation I can find - also, loved this - your reactions are awesome!
I love watching rugby, if you think that women's rugby is some how gentler, you will be disappointed. Women's rugby - "give no quarter" - "No quarter expected" They will come out with all guns blazing and give their all. Respect to women's Rugby.
The massively ignored by the media *Men's Rugby League World Cup* is also on...
At the same time as the *Women's Rugby (Union) World Cup.*
The *Men's Rugby League World Cup* was originally supposed to take place in October and November 2021.
League cup is fun but not as physical as Union
Great reaction vid.
Kicking the ball in play for points is called a “field goal” and can be utilised during the game. Kicking for field position allows the offence to apply pressure and panic to opponents defending their goal line. The kick can be used as a pass but, it can only be regathered by the kicker or any teammate that is behind the kicker (onside) when the kick is made. Fitness strength and speed are very important, if the body is exhausted, the brain doesn’t function properly and mistakes are made… Enjoy watching the woman’s rugby World Cup
Thank you John!
@@TheNatashaDebbieShow They call it a field goal in the southern Hemisphere ,but in Europe its a dropped goal
Awesome ladies thanks 🙏
You know you’ve now got Ladies Rugby in the US now as well as Mens it all over the UA-cam channels where people have found that anyone can play Rugby a learn how to be part of a team. Famously Rugby is defiantly a, no matter how it looks, a friendly and “we’ve won but isn’t it our turn to buy the Pints” type of game. Rugby clubs in the UK and elsewhere normally start in villages or schools where you end up having a clue house (obviously with some barrels of bear a bar and tables and chairs) and a rugby pitch which is marked out and with the posts standing proud. There are local leagues with competitive competitions going up to county level. This is where the big teams get their new players from. From UA-cam I get the impression that the team coaches try and get an instant team from older NFL players and this is good as far as it goes but they need to start a grass roots catchment, ensuring the local primary and secondary schools start the children off early to learn the very basics of the game by playing stealing ribbons. Basically the kids play a team game each of them having three ribbons loosely fixed to their shorts obviously the opposite team have to steel a ribbon off the other teams players. No tackling and no slapping, kicking or pulling of hair, just the basic team game. Even they reach about 14 / 15 then they start to get taught tackling, how to fall and also what not to do, like tackling around the neck or head. I was taught myself at school years and years ago.
According to the vids on UA-cam a lot of the reasoning behind Rugby in America is aimed at getting kids out of the usual spiral of urban dickey, to start showing them there is a greater thing to aspire to, I think this is a good thing but it needs to be widened I think to all children.
i dont care what you two do... i love you are having fun.
I root for France cause I'm french and the girls are amazing but my favorite for this cup is the Black Ferns, they deserve it.
They’ll have to get past the awesome England team first !!
Please react to the best of Nigel Owens being the best rugby referree ever. The man is a legend.
You had clips from women’s 7’s, 15aside and rugby league, so slightly different rules.
It’s worth watching the Black ferns, or the English as they are brutal.
Also watch the black ferns Haka.
Womens rugby, AND football in the UK is getting huge! it is taking off! I love that the women are so much tougher.
Great, yes, yes, yes. Impressive.
I am going to the final in Auckland , New Zealand on Nov 12!!! Should be an epic day!!
The all white is England, the all black are New Zealand, with the complete upside down tackle that was a foul as can be seen by the ref in red holding her arm up and blowing the whistle. All other tackling was fair, these girls are not sissies. These outtacks are all very well and fun but to understand the game l suggest you watch a complete game from start to finish. A game is far too long for your channel but just the two of you in private will give you an understanding of the game.
Watch the women's World Cup final 2021 played last Sunday(2022), Black Ferns vs England. Best game ever!
I think that England has the best woman's rugby team, but maybe I'm being biast. Even though I'm English, I now live in Wales, so when it comes to rugby, I'm in a bit of a pickle as they say here in the UK lol 😂 hope that you enjoy the world cup.
The somersault tackle at 7:20 was definitely illegal, and I think would have earned a red card for the tackler. You cannot lift the ball carrier's legs above their head and dump her/him. The tackler is responsible for the outcome of the tackle and the safety of their opponent. If a player hits the ground with head or neck, you are in trouble.
BTW the first oft repeated tackle on the English winger was perfectly legal, but it did cause a long-term injury problem for her.
Natasha..." is THAT legal?... 😆 🤣 🏉
Most amazing thing about rugby:”Every shape n size has a welcoming place on the field as a specific asset”
Rugby is not a game for the faint-hearted. As Oscar Wilde said, Rugby is a game for barbarians played by gentlemen.
The USA versus Canada game at this year’s women’s rugby World Cup was awesome you must be able to find a highlight somewhere
The last time I played was in school.
(before either of you great ladies were around) and Debbie summed up my whole philosophy.
"Don't give me the ball!"
Still.
Love your response.
😂😂
Same for me James. Some of the other players were big lads, I took a few pasting's. It was great to play though.
@@russcattell955i Oh, well.
Turned out I was a diver.
You don't get capped for Wales and Welsh waters can be pretty murky.
But it's fun.
you should check out some videos of when the New Zealand team perform the Haka before a game, men and women
One day when I was working in Auckland NZ for a civil engineering company and our new, that very day, depot manager was welcomed in a small boardroom with about 12 of us already in it by 8 to 10 Maori employees doing a Haka they'd written themselves
It was full noise and nothing was held back
It freaked me out as I wasn't expecting it and holy hell was that an awesome experience
The depot Kapa Haka group got sponsored to competitions by the company after that
The English translation of the Black Ferns Haka (Ko Ūhia Mai - Let It Be Known) is on you tube and is pretty cool too
(stolen from a newspaper)
Ko Ūhia Mai - English
Let it be known
Who are these women
It’s the Black Ferns rumble
From Hineahuone, Hinetitama and Hinenui te po we came
To transfer from the heavens to the world of enlightenment
Life force from above
Life force from below
The gathering clouds
The mountains that pierce the sky
Let us proceed
To the seas
From the corners of the island
To the neighbouring islands
And around the world
You stand tall and proud
Women of strength
Who will bear the future
The Black Ferns of New Zealand
Rise and press on
When the challenge arrives
We will gather and unite together
Strength together
It will be done
I have been waiting so long for you to do this video. I would like to see you do some more women's rugby reactions
We appreciate your patience ❤️❤️
Scotland My Team For Everything and Glasgow Celtic for Life. Rosalie. 🏴 ❤️ 🏴
Yes you can kick the ball when you wish, however, players on your own side can not chase the ball until they are either passed by the kicker or they start off behind the kicker on the pitch..
Um....huh? 😆
I Love You two..
Love your intro. hahaahahhahah
And thats is why we love Rugby
Love the intro 🤣Had to watch that a few times made me laugh. Most of the tackles you saw were legal but the flip is not because it is deemed dangerous if the feet go higher than the head therefore it is illegal but it still happens. Not sure who said it but Football (Soccer) is 90 minutes of pretending to be hurt whilst Rugby is 80 minutes of pretending not to be hurt. I watch women's rugby in particular the internationals. The World Cup has thrown up some fantastic games. Most of the games you have shown are internationals but I also think one or two clips were Rugby League may be wrong on that, The match with the women in black and white hoops against the team in all black was New Zealand (All black referred to as the Black Ferns I believe) versus the Barbarians (black and white hoops). The Barbarians are an invitational team mostly made of of international players from around the world. Love, hugs and prayers from Sussex, UK
You always remember that one hit that çhanged the match, the ball-carriers eyes widen as they realized how much trouble they were in. Ah the good old days.
I love you two.. soooo funny 😁 😂 xx
❤️
The New Zealand Black Ferns are the current world cup title holders. 🇳🇿🏆
Since the sport became professional, it is illegal to lift a person past the horizontal ( leg’s cannot be higher then their head) any direct contact with the head is and illegal tackle
The game with the girls in blue and maroon was the NSW v QLD "STATE OF ORIGIN" Game
Australia
The black.girl where you said impressive, 4.27. Was playing for USA eagles
Awesome!!! 🇺🇸 🇺🇲
