1. INTRO
Jonah Lomu Rugby is in my opinion the greatest rugby game ever made. I
know there isn't really much to chose from when it comes to rugby games,
but that dosen't mean Jonah Lomu Rugby isn't good.
I've searched the Internet, and could not find any FAQs or help files
about the game, so thats where this FAQ comes in. Its not complete, but
please email me at
[email protected] with any enquiries.

6. HINTS/TIPS TO PLAYING
Lineouts: Before the ball is thrown, press square to mark the jumper.
The best jumpers in the team are usually the 4th player and the
second to last player in the lineout. Once the ball is thrown,
press [X] and your player should be lifted very high.
Easy Rucks:When you want to win a ruck, take a player (preferbaly a larger
player such as a forward) and sprint him into it. Just as he
enters start tapping [S], causing the player to go in and out
of the ruck. This should be able to push the ruck over and let
get/keep the ball.
