you dont know how big these lads really are until you see them up close they really are huge guys

This might sound weird but saying 'rugby' by itself means Rugby Union. To refer to Rugby League or the NRL you need to say 'league' or 'rugby league'.

So surreal watching an American react to a try by Ryan Papenhuyzen (Storms Fullback who I went to school and played with). Love your work mate, keep it up!

Trust me it’s not the shorts _ I used to live in Huddersfield England and used to get my back fixed at the same place some of the Huddersfield Giants players used to go....some of those guys had thighs as thick as by body, and I’m not a small guy.

Keep up the NRL vids mate. Enjoying them.

You said that it reminds you of nfl with the kick returns but the difference is you can block in nfl but can't in nrl.

Awesome reaction mate! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Tip: We call our game “League” Rugby is a different game… So our game of rugby league is just shortened to league most of the time😎👍🏻 Yes it is very much like your NFL football in such that we have stops and the defence lines sets or resets before the next ruck is played Also, in league we have “Limited plays/Tackles” before having to hand the ball back to the opposite side Keep up the great work mate! Kind regards Nigel WMH Team - Australia 6:15

Just discovered you recently and i'm liking what i'm seeing. Keep up the great work!

Like the new screen-split set-up: keep it going.

Anything NRL is gold.

And boy can’t he run.... and take steroids like a champion you’ve gotta love this kid

I believe there is a team in American Football that has studied Rugby tackles and have incorporated them into the game as they are safer and have stopped doing head tackles and such like. I forget the name of the team but I believe there is a video somewhere here on KZfaq. I think they won the NFL or something the year after they started adopting Rugby tackles and other teams have copied suit since.

LOVE the way you say "oh he kicked it"! It's FOOTball! Of course they kick. Very Sydney centric!!!!

Love this set up, looks better

For me the '97 grand final between Newcastle and Manly is my favourite. An 80 minute brutal arm wrestle with a last minute winning try. Give it a watch, you will not be disappointed.

Enjoying the Videos. Remember that the object you refer to as the "pylon" , is actually called a corner post.

Good work mate. Remember it's Rugby League.... not just Rugby - two different games..

Three words: STATE OF ORIGIN. You must check it out. 9:50 “keeps their season alive” in “the finals” the number of teams is reduced down to the top 8, teams are eliminated until the “grand final” which is like your super bowl.

The guy with the mullet mohawk is a nrl immortal.

State of Origin New South Wales Vs Queensland Rivalry. Best players from each State play a 3 game series in the middle of the season. The rivalry over the years has built up to epic proportions.

Menke you Have to watch some State of Origin games from the 80’s and 90’s !! You can see the state of the grounds ! Water everywhere

You should definitely watch a video or two on Johnathan Thurston (voted by fans as best of the NRL era - with a whole sleuth of awards to back it up). He was called too small to play football from his early years, he played in the winning Grand Final of 2004 year but gave his premiership ring away to his mate & club captain Steve Price who was injured and couldn't play in the Grand Final. He always picks up the kicking tee to hand to the kids after each kick (1st person to do that- thou not many do) and always gives his headgear away to kids in the crowd (even if they support the opposition). He was so tough, lived the "never say die" attitude and never gives up .... here are at least two video's ... you can react to either if you want: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/aN96dKqpq7y-dKc.html or kzfaq.info/get/bejne/a9x5dpigsqi-qps.html

Definately think you would enjoy any GI, Greg Inglis. He is an incredible representative for Indigenous people, for team and country. He does an animal movement after tries which is his totem animal the goanna, a surprisingly quick and powerful animal .

Your awesome!! the Melbourne Storm were stripped of their 2007 and 2009 premierships and their 2006, 2007 and 2008 minor premierships, fined them an Australian sporting record $1,689,000. You need to find out their story, they debuted in 98 and won the series in 99.

Wally Lewis. Rugby league great once said “ the only way I’d be 3 feet off the ground is up s ladder “ Melbourne Storm and afl teams have “ Learnt off each other

Biggest difference is that our player must play the whole game. No changing your offensive line for a defensive line. Our blokes have to do both.

This is not Rugby it's League you have so much to learn about the world.

The jewel in the crown for Australian rugby league, State Of Origin. State against state. Mate against mate. Get on it. 3 games a year. Queensland v New South Wales. The 2 best rugby league teams in the world. No greater sporting rivalry exists on the planet.

ya REALLY should come down for a cuppla months for the State of Origin series...it has the best atmosphere and the best games!

I guess what you call a drive in nfl you could refer to as a "set of 6" in NRL or just "a set"

Glad you have got to some NRL, but we don’t call it a stiff arm, it’s a “don’t argue” here 👍🏻

Please react to these NRL videos ‘Greg Inglis highlights’ or ‘state of origin highlights’ both are real intense

Apparently the storm only had one good try in 2019, hmm interesting.

Nice vid

When they talked about the knee and you mentioned the knee going down. It is not like in NFL "taking the knee" (a knee?) but it's whether his knee touched outside the side line before the ball touched the ground in the goal area. If the knee touched first then the play ends there before the ball was grounded so net result is no try. Plus I don't know if this was confusing for you or others not used to NRL but a try is worth 4 points. When the commentators kept mentioning 2 points that means they won the game from that try and scored 2 points for winning. Win a game =2 points. Tie a game =1 point. Loose a game = 0 points.

You should check out Billy Slater's best - he was an absolute freak!

bruh you need to do more reactions to 2021 best tries

As an NRL fan, I enjoy your videos very much and appreciate your insights. Are you aware that the first games of the 2024 season will feature a double header in Las Vegas? My concern is branding. I wish the sport's governing body could brand it so people don't give credit to rugby. Like Coke and Pepsi to the uninitiated.

Rugby league what a tough game.

Try the best of Joey Johns if you like running plays.

You should watch the 2015 NRL Grand Final. Cowboys v Broncos. Most intense game finish EVER!!!

U should watch run-away tries

RUGBY LEAGUE

The difference to running the ball in NFL is there is no-one running interference because that is illegal.

Menke if you want to see some powerful running checkout Jason Taumololo.. this video seems fairly biased on the teams and trys its shows.. but this guy is just a freak.. takes 3 or 4 people to slow him down

Look up state of origin.. Especially the fight videos.

The biggest difference between NFL and rugby league/union is that most of the players play for the full 80 minutes. They have a 20 minutes break at half time but otherwise play the whole game. They don't swap between offence and defence because they all play both roles. The second biggest difference between rugby league/union and NFL is our blokes are not padded up They wear some but very little whereas your blokes are covered with bubble wrap.

you should watch scotland vs england 2019 six nations imo best rugby match ever and the full match is on youtube

Referees in Rugby speak to the players all the time and call shots constantly, they have a mic and you can hear it on TV, it´s awesome. Also, arguing with the referee is rarely seen. Not a rugby thing.

watching NRL 2020.mean as

Nrl 2015 grand final beat ever

If you want to know more o the rules of the NRL check out NRL playing rules

Couple of quick lingo things "rugby" generally refers to rugby union, NRL is rugby league, so your title is a bit confusing, though not your fault. I'm an Australian and we typically refer to the sport as "football" "footy" "league" or "rugby league", but to just say "rugby" means union not league (their game was invented first). A "juke" we call a "sidestep" or more commonly just "a step/stepped" A "stiffarm" is called a "fend" The "fake passes" we call "a dummy/dummies" Couple other little things you may not have noticed/known, touching any sidelines with any part of your body before scoring "a try" is classed as out, which is why you see the players jump and twist their bodies to score in the corners, the corner post is there just as a marker, but touching the post is not classed as out, only the line. The ball must be passed backwards. Forward passes lose possession. If the ball is dropped, it must be dropped backwards otherwise it's classed as a "knockon" and you lose possession. If a ball is dropped backwards play continues. You can generally tell a players position by the number on their back, 1-5 are classed as backs (1 fullback, 2 wingers, 2 centres), they're generally the fastest most agile players, 6 and 7 (five-eighth and halfback) are playmakers, 9 (the hooker) plays a role similar to the nfl centre that snaps the ball and 8-13 are forwards and are the bigger heavier players (2 Props/Frontrowers, 2 2nd rowers and 1 lock). Numbers 14-17 or higher are subs or reserves, generally these are replacement forwards but sometimes teams have an extra hooker or back instead of just 4 forwards. So when you see a player with a high number score a long range try, even though it may not seem impressive at first glance, what makes it impressive is these are the guys that make the most tackles, take the most hits, do alot of the hard work and generally are slower players, so it doesn't happen often. Most forwards score from close range. If you want a more comprehensive breakdown of the general rules, happy to help. (FYI November 18 8pm AEDT State of Origin (biggest game of the year) is on, if you're interested you should find a way to watch.

Someone get a Mark Gasnier try video on the list to watch

We just call it League. Rugby union is called Rugby. It’s like calling coke pepsi

In league you are only in touch or out if some part of the body is grounded.

Try and watch the NZ team. Huge players currently the best

Which do you like more? NRL or AFL?

Just to make your watching enjoyment more complicated this is Rugby league played at club and international level. There is another type of Rugby played also it's called Rugby Union the rules are slightly different this is also played at club and international level invented by an Englishman called William Webb Ellis 1823 .

just subbed to your channel mate, please react to ''THE BEST OF GREG INGLIS?'' dues a beast

This isn’t rugby. It’s rugby league.

react to maika sivo 2019 highlights

Go Sharks!

Jorge Taufua biggest hits

Bloke you look off your guts🤣

To me, rugby league and rugby union are as different as yes and no, Holden and Ford.

Check out some English super league to see how us brits do it

😸❤️

How is a NFL a touchdown as they don’t actually touch the ball down. To get the ball down in the NRL is an incredible skill. Once watch a few games you will see plenty of tries stopped by holding the ball up over the try line. The term (Rugby) is synonymous to rugby union they also use the term (Union) The NRL is rugby league and the term (League) is used. It’s how we identify the two different codes in Australia. League supporters hate it when mainly Americans say Rugby because you’re talking about rugby union. It’s a different game. NRL in my opinion is the superior game. Great to see your seeing what league fans in Oz already know. It’s a super fast, super tough and super exciting. It’s 80 minutes it’s non stop footy. So fatigue sets in big time. Hope that clears things up for you. Seeyalatermate.

NRL = NFL minus the bullshit.

Australia just hate the state of origin which is the best of the best for three games, should check out the highlights!

Have a look at Greg Inglis.

Mika sivo would be a good one to watch

Watch the English super league it’s the British rugby league little brother to the Aussie NRL!!

His name is mika Sivo the big guy

As you can see the tackles are very very hard. In a season you will get concussion few times. Brain damage is not uncommon for Rugby players.

American football can be CFL or NFL. Rugby League and Rugby Union are as different

Try and find State of Origin to react to.

If you think these British sports are confusing try watching Shinty a Scottish sport

Rugby and rugby league are different, the NRL is rugby league

This is not rugby, this rugby XIII where the rules are not to tackle as hard playd bu aus nz and english

Come to Sydney Australia and come to Nrl game I’ll go with u

Yeah, there are 2 types of rugby, rugby union and rugby league

Its a bit like NFL but its for men

State of origin mate.

roosters are the best lattrel mit was good in the roosters but then he joined rabitos and now hes a grub lol

If you haven’t realised most f the players are pacific islands indigenous Australian

nrl similiar to nfl...its called LATERAL PASSES IN NFL

The refs are the biggest flops in the game "Ben Commins"....the aussies know

This is Footie.

Watch the State Of Origin. Best league in the world.

So much like NFL.....pftttttttt, er no..

NRL is not "Rugby". NRL is Rugby League - known as League; Rugby UNION is "Rugby", better known as "Union". They are different sports NOT different "conferences" - whatever that is!

Nothing like NFL Rugby you play for 90min, not stop ever 2min you can only tackle the man with the ball,not any body else.No time outs to talk stratege. You cannot pass the ball forward, A touch down is a touch down not a run over the line and it's called a try.Rugby is for men not sissies who have to have padding and helmets.Why Americans persist in saying it's like NFL I will never understand the only thing similar is the ball and the goal posts.

Please call NRL League not rugby two different games

It's nothing like NFL there's skill involved in rugby, there's no skill at all in American football - a lot of ego tripping grandstanding but no skill. NFL might have been based on rugby but that's all. All the hard skillful bits have been removed to make NFL.

NRL is nothing like NFL I get what your saying but they are nothing a like

You call rugby league rugby thems fightn words. Two totally different games . Don't do it again LOL .

Sorry brother but our football is nothing like NFL we don’t wear helmets or shitty padding our game is seriously fast trust me it’s seriously faster now with the old rules brought back in

Rugby league mate not rugby.
