Best Team Sport "All in Brawls"

Ken sent this to me a few minutes ago....brought back great memories. Rugby League match 1981 Newtown V Manly. Both clubs detested each other....Newtown (blue) being the "battlers" from the wrong side of the tracks and Manly being the "silvertails" with all the money.

Post links to any great team "all in brawls". Yes....it has been resigned to the dinosaur era of sports....but still great to look back ;-)

And in other news from Europe...

"Granny rugby-tackled jay walker"

A 77-year-old granny made a citizen's arrest in Germany when she rugby-tackled a 25-year-old jay walker.

The pensioner sat on him until police arrived - because he had walked across a road before the light was green.

The woman, from Freital, near Dresden, shouted at the man as he crossed the road before the little green man flashed up.

The old lady said she became even angrier when he hit her with his rucksack as he pushed past her when he reached the other side of the road.

She grabbed his hair and managed to wrestle him to the ground where she sat on him until police, who had been called by a passer-by, came.

He was taken to a local police station where he was fined for jay walking.

Now that was a great scrum. They've taken all the fun out of the game.

that was actually league, not rugby (what they play down redcliffe way). and yes, far better that we watch brawling idiots (granted that is fun) than skill. how can anyone find inglis, lockyer, hodges, johns, gasnier and so on, boring? they are extremely talented athletes.

sad.
