Rugby League Quotes
| Source | Quote |
| Adrian Hadley, former Welsh International (1988) | "League is much, much more physical than Union, and that's before anyone starts breaking the rules." | | Anon | "To play Rugby League you need three things; a good pass, a good tackle and a good excuse." | | Anon | "Rugby League is war without the frills." | | Colin Welland, actor and screenwriter (1979) | "In South West Lancashire babes don't toddle, they side-step. Queuing women talk of 'nipping round the blind-side'. Rugby League provides our cultural adrenaline. It's a physical manifestation of our rules of life, comradeship, honest endeavour and a staunch, often ponderous allegiance to fair play." | | Graham Lowe, former Kiwi coach (1995) | "I'm 49, I've had a brain haemorrhage and a triple bypass and I could still go out and play a reasonable game of Rugby Union. But I wouldn't last 30 seconds in Rugby League." | | John Singleton, Australian (1981) | "Anyone who doesn't watch rugby league is not a real person. He's a cow's hoof, an ethnic or comes from Melbourne." | | Jonathan Davis, on A Question of Sport (1995) | On his change of code to Rugby Union - "It's the first time I've been cold for seven years. I was never cold playing Rugby League." | | Paul Bowman, at John Hopoate's NRL Judiciary Hearing (2001) | To Bernie Gross, Hopoate's defense QC - "If I held your leg, would that give you the right to put your finger up my arse?" | | Peter Jones, at John Hopoate's NRL Judiciary hearing (2001) | "It wasn't a wedgie. That's when your pants are pulled up your arse. I think I know the difference between a wedgie and someone sticking their finger up my bum." |

| Mark "Chopper" Read | "Apart from Irish whiskey, good cigars, Pontiac motor cars and a pistol grip baby .410 shotgun with solid load shells, what I love most is kidnapping smartarse gangsters and taking their money. To the human filth I have bashed, belted, iron barred, axed, shot, stabbed, knee capped, set on fire and driven to their graves, I can only quote from the motto of the French Foreign Legion, Je Ne Regrette Rien ... I REGRET NOTHING." | | Some Dublin taxi driver (2001) | On learning of Carver's extravagant first night on tour - "Eighty fucking pounds!! How can you spend eighty fucking pounds on a lap dance? You could've bought a bog-roll for 50p and had a wank." |
