History of Rugby Betting
The origins of rugby are something of a mystery and there is no definitive history of rugby, where rugby came from or when or how the game of rugby came about. The game of rugby is likely to have started as an amalgamation of soccer and other games including the Eton Wall Game and Winchester football. There is a famous myth that the game began at Rugby school when in 1893 William Webb Ellis picked up the ball in a game of soccer and ran with it. This story has been disproved, as running with the ball had existed for centuries before but the story that this was the origin of rugby persists and has become and enduring part of the game of rugby. Ruby betting is as old as the game with followers always willing to wager a bet on their favoured rugby side.
Rugby Trivia: The Rugby World Cup trophy is named the Webb Ellis Cup.
Rugby Betting: Try, Try, Try Again
In rugby the inclusion of the cross-bar was accompanied by a rule that a goal could only be scored by the ball passing over the bar from a place kick or drop kick. Rugby players who were able to "touch-down" the ball behind the opponents goal line were awarded a "try-at-goal" - the rugby player would make a mark on the goal line and then walk back onto the field of play to a point where a place kick at the goal was possible (a conversion). From 1875 when rugby games finished without any goals being scored, the team which had the most "tries-at-goal" was awarded the win. And remeber in rugby betting if at first you don't succeed try and try again.
Rugby Trivia:
Early rugby was very brutal with 71 deaths recorded in English rugby from 1890 to 1893 alone.
Rugby League v Rugby Union
What are the differences between Rugby Union and Rugby League?
Rugby Union and Rugby League are two separate games that evolved from a common rugby origin, and although they share many common features, the differences are marked.
The main differences in laws, is that Rugby League teams have only 13 players and rugby union has 15.
The scoring is different too. A Rugby League try is worth four points while Rugby Union's is valued a five; a drop goal in Rugby League counts for just one point while in Rugby Union it is worth three; a Rugby League penalty clocks up two points and the Rugby Union version three but a conversion kick following a try is worth two points in both codes.
In Rugby League an attacking team can only be tackled six times each attack before the ball is turned over, where as in Rugby Union there is unlimited tackles.
Rugby League has always been professional, where as payment for players in Rugby Union was only legalised in 1995. You can start rugby betting on your favourite right now online.
Rugby: Super League
In April 1995, the Rugby League announce the decision to form the European Super League, and the switch in playing season from winter to summer, to begin in March 1996. The Super League consists of 10 clubs from the existing first division rugby league teams plus London Broncos from the Second Division, and new rugby club Paris St Germain. This makes top rugby betting available all year round, so go on have a go.
