I’m glad y’all felt at welcome. If it helps at all, spread option football is as close as you can get American football rugby. You might like some of Paul Johnson’s games coaching CFB.

6 tackle means it was a league game. I like leagues history, it was formed as proletarian offshoot of rugby union. The original split was from the amateur rules in union (now gone either way) and league was a split that allowed working class people to get payed and dedicate time to the sport. Union was the continuation of the boarding school history of the sport. If League had Union rules it would be ideal in my opinion, but the league rules really allow for some wonderful open play.
