No seriously, I'd said football's basic principle is a bit complicated and the rules are simple, on the other hand, rugby's basic principle is very simple and the rules to keep that principle a reality in the game are complicated.
But the main difference is that in Rugby you have to keep the two team face to face and if you want to score you have to go through (or avoid) the other team, and passes have to be made backward. Pretty simple, the matter is the rules constantly evolve and we are at a point where speakers often don't say why the referee whistled... because they don't exactly know.

I find this really interesting because my biggest beef with soccer is that the rules seem so out-dated to me. Like why can't they just stop the clock when the ball goes out or a player is injured? And why only have one ref actually on the field?
