We call it football as apposed to "soccer" because the game is played mostly with your feet in contact with the ball. Unlike American football in which players pick up the ball and run with it. It makes a lot more sense when you actually use your brain and think about it :-)

Difficult to know where the supposed ignorance of SJ and the actual ignorance of Secret SJ cross here.

Maybe New Zealand should try a Welsh coach for the next World Cup - they've tried everything else ;-)

Rugby has nothing on American Football.

Show me something comparable to the poetry in motion that is a Brady-Moss hookup. You can't.

Fookin slags.

You got it wrong. Vote up the commentards, not down. Make my day funnier, not more gloomy.

Come on Phlem, don't be silly now, of course rugby is violent but it is kept on the pitch as opposed to the wendyball playing soccer/footballers who get their fans to do their talking.

It's the Welsh RUGBY team. Footballers aren't cool enough for Apple.

OK, you now know you will never, ever be welcome in Wales? I'd love to see a rugby team take on your 'world champions' of American football and beat them out of the park. Even the local county team, never mind one of the national teams. Rugby is you football without the protection and a far more fascinating game to watch.

And with reference to soccer - most other countries do refer to it as football, soccer is a poor substitute.

Whilst you can wind us up over your attitude to mac vs PC, just don't touch the beautiful game, you'll always be in the minority.

You must've been watching New Zealand play not the home nations.

They would have won sooner but:
Taff: "how do we win the grand slam blodwyn?"
Blodwyn: "you need a Mac"
Taff: "okay boy-o, but what if it's not raining? Do I still need to wear it?"
(Repeat each year until, etc.)
