Don't follow Rugby, but love your "butt...in the muddy ruck." Funny limerick, Rico!

Rugby is a sport for those unafraid to get their hands dirty! Women's rugby is my favourite! Aloha! Rico

G’day Rico … witty limerick apart from one minor detail. The All Blacks play Rugby not Australian Rules. Outside Aus. there are no AR professional teams - C-mon the bulldogs - Lindsay

Sorry! I recall an Exhibition Game where the All Blacks played Australian Rules - and won! Aloha! Rico

Mahalo, Michelle! We all know we are fools, so we celebrate with carnivals! Aloha! Rico

Surrounded by Eire, England, Scotland, and Wales, it is surprising Douglas isn't the capitol of Rugby . . . .. perhaps someone pulled the rug out from under IOM feet? Aloha! Rico
