As a rugby player I can tell you that "Bring back the biff" has something to do with "Rugby League" in it's purported magical era of the 1970's.
For those who do not know better
Rugby League is a watered down version of the real game of Rugby (known as Rugby Union) fabricated in the 1920's to be a more marketable version of the game of Rugby.
Very popular in Australia. Yep--they wear real shiny & silky "short-shorts" (Olivia Newton-John would be proud) just like in soccer and Aussie Rules Football. They also wear obnoxious soccer-like jerseys with more sponsors listed than on a Nascar jacket.
If anyone wants to see how they play real Rugby, the Six Nations tournament was just recently aired on Setanta and the big event coming up will be the Rugby World Cup starting in September.
These three guys look like bad extras from a movie about Greenwich Village in the late 1980's !
Is one of them "Right Said Fred" ? "I'm too sexy for my watch, too sexy for my watch, too sexy for Panerai....I'm a risti you know what I mean, and I do my little dance on the catwalk..."
Etc.
