Episode 4: Rugby vs (Rhythmic) Gymnastics

[@Sam_H6002]

100m sprinters vs the wingers

[@Zazskatchenews]

Very cool and fun. I'm sure there is a way to make it even more fun since we use quite a lot of rugby techniques in waterpolo!

[@Braun30]

We once did a three way championship.
Waterpolo v ice hockey v basketball.
All three teams were swiss champs that year.
The teams played only the sport they were not familiar with.
Was quite fun, waterpolo managed to win but I must say, still looking for the puck now.

[@jkagbayani]

Let’s be honest here. Water polo smoked them.

[@MGoose66]

Rugby boys shooting simultaneously from point blank range - and still failed... chalk and cheese really.

[@jacksonkitts2938]

yea lol

[@kadirsuyabatmaz]

Waterpolo is another level in terms of required Stamina.

[@kaimbrx]

This is so freaking awesome!

[@KwongEdits204]

[@ariananicolebahramicorniel3674]

Um I get the confidence is key but they look so uncoordinated in the water it was just a mess

[@182Warren]

WHY ?????

[@raymondgouws574]

Why not

[@magnuspeacock5857]

It's fun, you know.

[@benjamingardner3314]

The passing should have been for distance and accuracy, that last round was so weighted in water polos favor. All fun.

[@aaron_jordaan]

Well the water polo players shot from much further back and the first challenge was weighted in the rugby players favour

[@ssocar96]

Bro, that last round handed the biggest handicap to help Rugby; first round had no advantages given to help out Waterpolo.

[@michaeldong1438]

Rugby it’s are 🐔

[@robrochon1034]

What kind of male can't throw a ball overhand?!?!

[@peakdread2598]

Ignorant

[@vamospensardiferente5831]

No way to make such comparison, totally different sports.

[@MrLolpooo]

Lol, Rugby player are shooting from much closer distance
