- Bum Sniffing
- Derogatory name for rugby because of the set-piece known as the scrum. In rugby union (and in a token way, rugby league), each team's eight forwards bind together, crunch into each other, and try to push the opposition eight backwards. This is the mechanism that creates cauliflower ears, and while bums may not actually be sniffed, a lot of nut grabbing and dirty shit happens here.
- Throwball
- A derogatory term for the rugby codes. Many Australian Rules Football supporters consider rugby league and rugby union to be inferior, and not worthy of bearing the mantle of 'football'.
- Thugby
- Rugby.
