Bradley Wiggins reckons Rugby League is. As boring as the advert is, I liked it as well as when I first saw it as it's not what you expect at the end.

“The thing that struck me the most was just how hard and how physical it was,” Wiggins said of league. “Everyone knows it is a physical game but I had only seen union up to that point, but league… just how fast it was, how athletic the players were. It was a proper sport to the point where you sit in the stands, you get to hear the tackles. From a sport like cycling we think it’s dangerous at times with the crashes, but it was no comparison really and it was inspiring, sitting there watching.”
