Remember them good old days playing for the Reg,than Army and than onto the combined services,met so many great top lads from Navy and Air Forces.GOODTIMES đđŸđŻđđŸ
It was a special series of matches as they weren't able to play Inter Services matches this year (no Navy available). They chose to focus on playing in the North.
The intent is to move League to it's heartland in order to build a crowd. It was a good day, with junior age group and women's hand too, all with the bar open. Looking forward to next year already.
Played rugger for the RAF myself and was buggered senseless by my flying officer: Ginger Crickleton Buttwallop and Jonny Cocksavage my navigator. Still ! Taught me a lot about life:What
"we don't want a boxing match we want a game of rugby league" Here's me scratching my bollocks on the couch thinking that was one and the same thing....
Reminds me of the time I watched Neath Vs Bridgend only there was more fighting than this and no red cards. Leave those for football, rugby is a mans game - expect a fight - break it up - carry on.
@@JammyDodger45 played Army colt rugby Union at start of 80âs as a junior leader then hundreds of games for many many more years while in the Army with plenty of punch ups taking place & never ever any incidents resulting in disciplinary action being taken after the game. Out in 2000 so could b different now days but not back then. You just got stuck in & had a good beer afterwards all together having a laugh about the game.
I love both codes profusely. Ball in play is at least 65% more in League. 50/22 and goal line drop out kicks this year in Union came from League. Maybe watch both and appreciate them the same.
@@robw7676 What about us who are outside of the UK? From both Rugby codes I prefer League. For I know I will get a more entertaining match more likely if I watch league. If you pull "I must be a simple guy" card out. Then I will invite you to watch Finnish baseball and try to figure out how it is played. What are the players doing, what is the strategy etc. I just enjoy the many sports that are in the world. The best thing about it? You can choose what to watch.

Or watch individual sports like boxing, MMA, track and field sports, tennis etc. Best thing is I can choose what to watch.

The RAF got batterd on the pitch and in that fight đ€Łđ€Łđ€Łđ€Łđ€Łđ€Ł However, this fight is the result of not playing rugby correctly. Play Union and you'll have the correct discipline! đ€·

Blimey! I heard that all the way up here in Castleford.
THAT WERE DIABOLICAL!

We'll done. Love the passion and the footy was good. As an ex military member thanks for your service.
We don't use the whole "thanks for your service" thing in the uk mate
That guy for the RAF with the yellow boots was really flying for that try - I will not be giving up my day job!
Very decent players! Well done lads
Best tear up I ever had was against the navy.
Cheap british forces cannon fodder!!!
@@PedroGonzalez11111 calm down Pedrođ€Ł
Used to be good to watch these at aldershot stadium off queens ave been some cracking games
TBF, it WAS a high tackle.
Damn! I miss the Days of the Mass brawl, every time these(and the Navy) lads met! Union as well!
Why the hell did the camera man pull back to bloody Scotland when the fight action started?
Great to see Midds still playing Rugby
Much better than I anticipated, much better. Great game
Mixed feelings over this, my uncles an army man (kings Royal Hussars) but my interest has always been in the RAF. He knows and seems ok with it lol.
Was a mix rugby league, rugby union and boxing all in one.
hahahaha. Good old British Spirit on show here. Yes Sir.
Is this in Warrington? I never knew they played it here! Thought they only did it on armed forces day

I was expecting a shit-show but these guys are actually decent. Some of those kicks were tasty.
A lot of super league players originate in forces rugby league.
I played 7's for the Royal Navy, always a rum do !!!
I've no dog in this fight but that was a fucking disgraceful tackle.
Yeah! Pretty naughty.
Stupid too.
Could the commentators hear each other? Literally talking over each other for 50% of this
We need to see more of our British armed forces enjoy themselves in a game or two of rugby
Why?
The Trafalgar Cup makes that's handbags look like foreplay.
1:44 remember these are people who pride themselves on discipline, trained to keep their cool in stressful and dangerous situationsâŠ.
It's rugby not combat you mong
What is early doors ?
That was good. Enjoyed it.
Play to the whistle fly boys đ

" buggered senseless by my flying office" yea bad phrasing there
That's what the forces are all about. Homoeroticism hidden behind a thin veil of machismo
That commentator sounds like James Deighton.
I wonder where the Matavesi factory is?
SEND THE DIRTY GIT OFF, that were diabolical. ACANT SPEYYYYK
Major AGAIs all round!
Just a bit of push me shove you. I'm ex Navy we had some belting battles.
Knew the RAF would have a flying wing....
Go on the Army đŹđ§đ
It's? The Fijian Army Rugby Tracksuit Regiment! đ
good game.
Stoke Staffies Rugby League.
Brawl at 1:41 đđŒ
3:38 Makemosi (?) scores and managed to injure himself - landing from height with ball between you and the ground not a good idea!
"we don't want a boxing match we want a game of rugby league"
Here's me scratching my bollocks on the couch thinking that was one and the same thing....
Proper rugby league.
RAF probably thinking about what's for dinner in the mess.
A Mess! Are you nuts. Gordon Ramsey mate.
Mess? Marriott dining room more like đ§
That wasn't a brawl lmao check out and boys rugby league..now there's some proper brawls
Shame the referee decided at the end to no longer play knock-ons. Should have told both teams.
The Ref caused the punch up, he let about 3 army high tackles go before the clothesline. He ruined a very close game.
Be great to drop a big bomb on that pitch đźđȘ
Couldn't find your way out of the bog

Good stuff happens and you zoom out.. sacked
Show the fight then
Number 17 for RAF what a dog move.
Why zoom out? Typical British cameraman. They never want to get deep into the scrap.
Are you allowed to punch a higher ranking officer or nco.
Yeah, you wouldnât know what rank they held in a rugby shirt. Youâd just have to deal with the disciplinary afterwards
You're on duty when representing your Service so no is the accurate answer.

An absolute disgrace, no one wants to see that, though itâs always good to see
It's rugby league! What do you expect?
Poor refereeing
League.
Handbags ffs
Nothing to see here. đ„ đș
bromancing
Join the military and learn self discipline
Being ex forces myself, I can assure you that self discipline goes out the window when it comes to pride of your shirt badge mate
@@YoYoZamolo how many times did you have to play with comrades willies?
Haha RAF canât fight
Of course we can't, that's why we send in our officers first.
I suspect the Luftwaffe would disagree.
Close physical contact in sport bound to create aggression!
a lot of hand bags throw about in that game not nice to see
Oh itâs league not actual rugby

Southern softy
Rugby with simple rules so that Yorkshire can understand them, also played in Lancashire so they have something else to beat Yorkshire at.

Shocking comment straight red
I did 8 years in the Army playing union and didn't even know league teams existed lol. I would want a fight if someone made me play league.
Rugby league! What do you expect? Load of ruffians, don't ya know.
I expect thuggery from the army but not the brylcreem boys.
Wonder how many innocent civilians these âplayersâ have murdered under orders in their professional careers?
