I've always held somewhat of an interest in it, but these games are really re-igniting my passion for it. Absolutely relentless, goal filled, fairly simple for newcomers and endless opportunities to make the keepers look like mugs. Love it. Anyone else enjoying it?

I agree, it's definitely very watchable. Like basketball, you might as well not bother having the middle third of the pitch, but handball is certainly more entertaining. It's really popular in Europe, I wonder why it hasn't caught on here? I've also been enjoying the volleyball (non-beach), really exciting at times.

No he wasn't! He was fucking useless. Hand ball is for people who are rubbish at football.

Hand job, I've always had an interest in it....Absolutely relentless, jis filled, fairly simple for newcummers and endless opportunities to make your sheets feel like boards. Love it. Anyone else enjoying it?


I'm really sorry Mr The Lad for another low quality puerile retort on my behalf. I will watch handball a hundred times to make up in a detention stylee

Watched Olympic coverage all day yesterday, handball was the sport that stood out the most to me - quality game!

The defence seems interesting. It seems the best tactic is to simply bearhug the attacker and give away a foul, as it doesn't get them any closer anyway. Saying that though I've only watched two games ever now so there's probably more to it than that.

Handball: I like it but it's just a little too fast and furious. Tires me out just watching it.
