FOOTBALL | Scrum
www.scrum.com | | | One of the very best rugby sites on the web, Scrum brings you the latest rugby news, views and information in style. Whether you're a devoted fan who wants to devour every morsel of information on the Union game or simply an interested observer who wants the big news as quickly as possible, Scrum is ideal. Extended features on pertinent issues add to the brew, while we also liked the quick start menu that allows swift access to your favourite sections. |
Planet Rugby
www.planet-rugby.com | | | An absolutely huge and extremely well designed site, the mainstay of which is a breaking news section that will keep you informed of all that's new in the world of Rugby Union. There's also the option to have the latest news emailed to your desktop once a day if you haven't always got time to get online. In addition, you'll find a plethora of opinions and predictions for forthcoming games, which are particularly handy if you're prone to the odd flutter. Also home to the latest international rankings. |
Rugby 365
www.rugby365.com | | The 365 team have made an effort in recent months to bring this site up to the standard of its football cousin and the news section is certainly bang up to date.
The standard of analysis is also up to scratch and the columnists, including some famous names like England forward Martin Hill, have a nice line in sarcastic humour. However, the design is a little sparse and there isn't enough content to keep you reading for long. |
Rugby Coach
www.rugbycoach.com | | | As the front page of this well-designed site explains, you won't find any tips on how to tackle or catch the ball here. What you will find are a host of resources aimed at rugby coaches around the world. From convincing your team of lager-soaked losers that they are the best team in the world, to making sure they're fit enough to last the full 80 minutes, it's a comprehensive guide. |
The Rugby Football League
www.rfl.uk.com | | | Despite the popularity of the game, particularly in strongholds like Leeds and Wigan, Rugby League is woefully under represented on the Web.The exception that proves the rule is this attractive official site. It provides an ideal environment in which to monitor all the latest scores and official news from the rough and tumble of the League game. Another compelling feature is the Hall of Fame, which will fill you in on the giants of the sport's past. |
Scottish Rugby Union
www.sru.org.uk | | | The team may not have been quite so successful in recent years, but Rugby Union still has a massive following north of the border. This excellent official site contains plenty of interest to the tartan rugby lover. It features details of the impressive new stadium at Murrayfield together with the latest team news. You can also order tickets online and find out the latest domestic scores. Young ruckers meanwhile can enjoy the Shockwave enhanced 'Scruff' section of the site, which concentrates on youth rugby. |
English Rugby
englishrugby.com | | Not the most stylish site in the world, but this text-based offering has all the information a serious follower of Rugby Union could require.
An unofficial site set up by a dedicated fan, it is updated regularly and includes all the latest news and results from both the national team and the domestic game. It even includes details of the women's game and updates from around the world. |
New Zealand Rugby
www.nzrugby.com | | | By their own high standards, the All Blacks had a disappointing World Cup last year, but they remain the most famous rugby team in the world. This very stylish site contains the latest news, of course, but casual surfers will be more interested in the other fine multimedia elements. The proud history of the All Blacks is explained in lavish detail, as is the tradition of The Haka. And for a bit of light relief, why not try and kick a conversion in the entertaining Shockwave game. |
