Answer 2

Ill die before rugby gets banned

Answer 3

a health and safety ban will come into rugby at the same time as they give football an excitment certificate....in other words it'll never happen....

Answer 4

It won't be long...  that and golf!  Dangerous sports!!!

Answer 5

volenti non fit injuria ! This is Latin for "no injury can be done to a willing person" and is a legal term.

If a person knows the risks involved and consents to the activity they cannot claim compensation if they get hurt. So there would be no need for H&S to ever ban it.

H&S is there to protect vulnerable people, not willing participants or to stop the fun!!

Answer 6

about a decade after they ban boxing.

Answer 7

Why should health and safety ban rugby ? Have you ever played rugby ?

Answer 8

As soon as they've finished the risk assessments!

Answer 9

never not in this life time or the next mate.

Answer 10

Never it's a traditional game in many countries e.g. Wales, Scotland and Ireland

Answer 11

well they have been playing Rugby  a long time, and health and safety in sport is an oxymoron

Answer 12

Don't tempt them old boy, you know what these health and safety crybabies are like! they'll probably want the ball rounded off first incase it takes someones eye out. Tip top (Boo hoo)

Answer 13

I would say about the same time the hold the winter Olympics in h**l.  Meaning never in your lifetime.  Compared to boxing, mixed martial arts and international wrestling the sport is as safe as watching football on the telly.

Answer 14

never

Answer 15

Probably not until after they consider banning Formula 1 and motor bike racing!

Answer 16

Well if your so concerned about not getting hurt why don't we just live in a bubble??  Grow up its their choice to play it so just stay out of their business.

Answer 17

when someone bans going to a doctor for health and safety reasons... probably far more dangerous than playing rugby.....

Answer 18

Ha, when will they ban it? That's funny. I hope you're being sarcastic.

If rugby is ever banned in England, which is where I assume your from, then I might look for the four horsemen. (aka the apocalypse).

Answer 19

are you gonna ban walking across the street too? after all someone could get hit by a car

Answer 20

It'll be a sad sad day if this ever happens but, the way the world's going it's definitely a possibility. Even with the nutty health and safety people It'll be a while yet. They'll get it taken out of schools first then it'll be completely outlawed.

Then we'll have to play underground games.

Answer 21

dont be so soft. people get hurt everyday and not always their fault. rugby players love the physical aspect of the game and injurys are part of it!!

Answer 22

You are kidding..........bet your tongue was furiously rubbing your inner cheek as you typed this question, LOL:)

Answer 23

theres more chance of being run over by a bus or having a car accident, why dont we just all wrap ourselves up in cotton wool and lead totally boring lives is what youre trying to say.
