Not exactly what I was expecting, but interesting anyway.

I can't comment on the accuracy of the book's rugby information, not knowing anything about the sport. But the book was a humorous and interesting read, and when I next watched the Top Gear episode where James and Jeremy played rugby with Kias, I understood a lot more of the comments and jokes. Overall, recommended.

This was a great book to read if you wanted to play the game of Rugby. Also, a good book if you just want to pretend you know how to play Rugby while at the local pub. It was well written and I enjoyed reading it. It was funny in parts, and I feel like I could go out on the pitch and pretend to know what I am doing. It did help when I went to a Rugby game.

Fun and well-written, this guide provides everything a bluffer might need. Want to be on a rugby side but not bothered with all the exercise and general physical effort? This is the book for you. I had originally picked it up hoping it would explain more of the rules and general play, but quickly realized I don't need to know all of that. Sit back, relax, and enjoy a pint while learning how to play rugby without actually playing (except in the direst of emergencies).
