yes the game is different but I encourage all to watch a few games, if only on the youtube summaries. the player are world class athletes.
when watching
1. all offensive play is behind the ball, and passing by hand is never forward. kicking can be used to move the ball forward
2. these is no blocking- only the ball carrier is tackled
3. fumbles are called 'knock-ons' and end forward movement.
4. scrum play is confusing at first. if the ball is off the ground the forwards can push against each other to move the ball. once the ball is on the ground forward movement is over and the forwards set up the next play
5. consume lots of beer and enjoy the game
