This is so comprehensive. Being South African everyone just assumes I'd pick it up or understand our national sport. Problem is, no one every bothered explaining wtf was going on and what each position involved. Great video, wish I'd had something like this growing up.

Thank you for the explanations!!!! I'm going to see my grandson play on Saturday, and know nothing about Rugby. He plays Scrum half. I will rewatch your tutorial again to learn more of his position.

In college, 45 years ago, I played Semi-Pro soccer $75 for a win, $35 for a loss). One day, getting ready for a game I watched the end of a rugby game. Watching that game, I was convinced that I was playing the wrong game! I've been a fan ever since but never had the fortune to get to play a game. I enjoyed the '95 Spring Bucks and loved invictus!

That was "quite simple" to learn??? I must be an idiot.

Thank you so much for this!! I'm a sophomore (girl) from the United States and my friend who's a senior introduced me to rugby just a month ago and I love it so much. They made me scrumhalf for the season and I'm nervous because I barely know anything lol but it's really amazing.

I’ve been a fan of rugby since I saw the World Cup on TV in 2007. I wasn’t familiar with the laws and the flow of the game at first. As an American who didn’t grow up with rugby but is a fan, I’ve read many websites, and watched many videos and matches. This is one of the most thorough and clearly demonstrated videos on rugby that I’ve seen. I highly recommend it.

Thank you so much for this! I only started playing rugby for the first time in my life a few weeks ago and I’ve been so embarrassed because of how confused I am. This video has really helped me, I will be coming back to it! 👌🏻

I'm an American and I love watching the game. I first got introduced to it in the mid 1970's but never knew the rules. Your explanation really helps and I can now enjoy it more. I record the games on the Canadian channels and play it in slow motion so I can really see and understand the moves. It's far better than watching American football 😛

Thanks for this. As a parent with practically zero sporting experience & children who just joined a rugby club, this simple yet quit complete overview is a great help. I particularly appreciate the fact that you get straight to the information, unlike so many other YouTub channels that just waffle on for ages before giving you the info you are seeking. A bug thumbs up for that. Cheers.

This was of great help. I intend to start playing rugby in a couple weeks and I'm happy I can go in at least knowing something about the game.

I played Rugby League (a similar but ultimately different game) in my youth but I would love to learn to be able to play Rugby. Rugby League is more fun to watch (IMHO) but Rugby seems more fun to play and has less potential for serious head injury. These are the two main attributes that attract me to it. The trouble is learning the game of Rugby. It's a lot harder to learn the game of Rugby than it is to learn the game of Rugby League. I wish they had Rugby in my area when I was growing up so I could've learned how to play it in my youth.

I've played rugby league most of my life in New Zealand and i've just begun to play union, thanks for the video.

Thanks, James! My grandson played his first game today. I may need to watch your podcast a number of times to fully understand the game😊

Thank you for such a clear explanation of the game! As a Yank, I've always been intrigued by the sport, even though I've never really understood it! Now that I have a basic understanding, I think I can now watch a game being played on ESPN. I will keep watching other tutorials to further my understanding!

this was so helpful! im playing for the first time as a high school freshman in America

Just began playing rugby for the KX Steelers, this is very informative, thanks a bunch :)

Great game and I love it myself, as a young blindside flanker, I think it's great that rugby is being recognised more, thank you James

Came here after watching 2 hours of rugby ref videos... didn't understand the rules and the procedures of the game much...now I have at least a basic understanding! Great beginner video, thanks James! Would love to see some more "in game film" with commentary and explanation of yours about what was going on (on a beginner level). Keep it up, great job! Greetings from Germany!

I was playing Mario & Sonic at the Tokyo 2020, was starting to get into Rugby, went here to try to understand it, now afterward James, I am now a fan of Rugby and now a subscriber of you James, your awesome.

Great break down of the game in simple terms. I'm going to ask the lads in the U13's team I help out with to watch this as we have had lots of new players this season who have never played before. Thanks.

thanks for the help.I play for broadstreet rfc and that has helped me with my confidence of playing on the pitch.Thanks James!

This was better than all the results above it. It's many years old though. I'll check your latest videos for updates that cover the parts that are still confusing . Thank you for your contribution to the world!

James did an amazing job explaining the game yet it still is difficult to understand it all after just one look

Thank you, James. I needed this info. You delivered it well.

Really good explanation of Rugby for people with little knowledge but great interest about the game! My hubby and I have started watching Seattle Seawolves games and this guide really helps. Will be watching this video several times because there is so much good info presented here!

really awesome video! Made me appreciate Rugby a lot !!

Great, now I understand this much better. Terrific video.

The definitive guide. Well presented and easy to understand.

Just watched an international Womens Rugby match. Caught it by accident and it spiked my interest. I watched the entire game and enjoyed it very much. I may be a fan in the making.

Bloody hell this fella does everything haha, swear he's a DJ as well

Man have the rules changed and for the better. Wonderful progression and gr8 presentation, m8.

I really like this video. I'll probably watch it again sometime to put new training experiences into place

A Marvellous indroduction to the game.

Found this video to be very informative and helpful. My first practice is tomorrow and I feel a bit more prepared now.

Fantastic video explaining the rules! Thanks!!

Thanks fam, real helpful stuff ya got here. Keep up the good work!

Thanks for this. Very informative. I played American Football but have always wanted to understand Rugby. It looks like great fun!

By far the best video of the subject!

Really helpful video I’ve always struggled to understand what is going on but this has really helped!

As a first time rugby player ever, this video honestly has put things into perspective for me. Thank you for spacing it out, and making rugby digestible for a noob like me. 😅😅😂

Thanks for the explanation, I'm a light heavyweight kickboxer myself but I really want to try a team sport and thought this was a good one to try since I'm too big for football. Gave me a good idea of how the sport works

I'm from India and had no idea of the rules of rugby but being a sports enthusiast, wanted to understand the game. This is the best video I came across. Thanks alot man!

Thanks. I know more now than I did before, and I've been a fan of British rugby for ten years.

Cheers from France Mr. Haskell, thank you for the great work! Helped some of my friends to have a clearer understanding about this incredible game we play!

This is a full and well articulated primer on rugby. Thank you for the details and the logical breakdown of the core aspects. I appreciate how you did not compare the Rugby game to American Football. The demonstrating teams showed the game activity in good time, making the understand more full.

A very simple but clear explanation. Who knew Hask had this skill in his kit bag? But he left out the bit where Nigel Owens talks to you like you're still at school. 😁

This is so helpful I’m looking on starting but I have no clue what to do and I’ll be starting with good players straight away so this was helpful for rules and positions

Very helpful and practical explanation of the game.

Thx so much was going for school rugby team but I only know how to play league and this vid helped me so much and gave me some knowledge on rugby union

Great video Hask, might want to consider adding "Union" in the title for any Americans though. With the Rugby League WC being hosted there in the near future that may come up a bit more

just started rugby thank you it explained a lot for me!

This video has helped me so much thanks I'm taking notes

I'm an experienced player, but this is still fun to watch. It makes me think back to my time learning the game

James this was a great help cheers mate

Done very nicely!

Going to start soon I had no idea on how to play however I do have experienced on American football. Can’t wait it’s going to be a blast

We actually have a try out and I was intrigued by the sport but I don’t know much about it.. thank you!!

Loved it bro thanks was a big help

fantastic insight. thanks for the video

Thanks I've started not too long ago this helps a lot while doing training

Thank you for this video. I just started watching the 2023 Rugby World Cup and am enjoying it!

After this I have a greater appreciation for this sport. It definitely is more friendly than I expected.

Thank you for the tutorial. Now I can watch Rugby with confidence.

very in detail, thanks very much for the explanation!! also Just started rugby, and transitioning from american football... I always have to rmb to run behind the ball carrier instead of running in front of him....

great job James .. thanks!

Well explained and articulated. Rugby is a noble game.

Thanks James I enjoyed it a lot
