I’m an American who has always been intrigued by these very English sports. I grew up playing ice hockey and a big part of the appeal was similar to what you described about Rugby; the physicality, teamwork, and unwritten rules condoning an old-fashioned fistfight when individual or team honor is violated. Great piece.
