Rugby and football are both among the most popular sports on the planet - and many people are of different opinions which is better. Both have their own unique rules and styles - and involve a lot of stamina. But while rugby involves a lot of hitting around and tackling, football is  game of strategy.

Of the two, football is much more popular because it is played globally while rugby is restricted to certain countries. Football has many more fans - indeed, if a rugby match is watched by 1000 people then an equivalent football match wll be seen by 10000.

In my opinion, football requires a lot of brains and strategy but rugby is just bumping into huge men and is much more like wrestling then a decent sport.

The common factor in both games is that the centre of attention is a ball - and even they are different shapes. Both are entirely different from one another.

You don’t need to be a huge guy to play football. Anyone can play it while rugby’s biggest demand is to be a muscular bloke who can push anybody out of his way.

Many rugby fans say that football is soft game and not at all physical. What do they say of rugby, which is physical and much more like a sport for savage people? Well, this is gonna annoy many people but in my opinion rugby players just get the ball and run - then get thrown on the ground with many other players on top of them. The game is studded with incidents like broken bones and noses - in other words, it's the sport of blood and injuries.
