REGARDING the story "Rugby is not so tough" (May 1), perhaps the author Neil Bonnar would like to talk to, say, a local amateur rugby league dinner about the arrogance of those who watch the sport.

Also, if Mr Bonnar has been to a match recently - and has he? - he would know that it has evolved into a highly skillful game played by very fit sportsmen, not 20-stone blokes, be they from the likes of Keighley or not.
