In this quick and easy guide to the game of rugby, Paddy O'Brien explains the laws of rugby in clear and simple language for fans and supporters on the sidelines and - most importantly - at home on the couch. The positions of the players, the field, rucks and mauls, ref's calls, infringements and penalties - everything is revealed. Graphics illustrate the harder concepts, and an index is included for quick reference.
