And that cheating and getting away with cheating during the course of the game is admired - see defensive “linespeed” (offside), basically every back row player at every breakdown, all front row scrummaging, “flat” passes, all scrum put-ins, all scrum halves, etc.
Then there are the shoulder charges, high tackles, fights, gouging, spitting, calling the referee a fucking cheat, Dan Biggar’s constant moaning, huge Frenchmen elbowing people in the face, etc.
Yes, definitely the steroids, ephedrine, testosterone, HGH, etc.
But other than that, what have the Romans ever done for us?
