“Rugby football is a game I can’t claim absolutely to understand in all its niceties if you know what I mean. I can follow the broad, general principles, of course. I mean to say, I know that the main scheme is to work the ball down the field somehow and deposit it over the line at the other end and that, in order to squelch this program, each side is allowed to put in a certain amount of assault and battery and do things to its fellow man which, if done elsewhere, would result in 14 days without the option, coupled with some strong remarks from the Bench.”

– P. G. Wodehouse Very Good, Jeeves (1930)

– Anon fax to New Zealand team before the 1995 World Cup semi-final against England
