You get a team of pale European Rugby players together, and I'll gather up a group of three hundred pound NFL linebackers. We'll set them up to play American Football without any padding and just see who's the first one cry and demand "armour."
Seriously, I've heard the "Rugby is tougher because they don't wear padding" excuse so many times. LOOK WHO'S PLAYING IT.

Pro football players players are bigger, meaner, and hit harder than any Rugby player you'll ever see.

No, against a guy with a rocket launcher you want to run like heck.
We just want a bigger rocket launcher. Used to be British.
