Comparison of Gaelic football and rugby union goalkeeper. Scores are recorded in the format Goal Total-Point Total. To determine the score-line goals must be converted to points and added to the other points. For example, in a match with a final score of Team A 0–21 Team B 4–8, Team A is the winner with 21 points, as Team B scored only 20 points (4 times 3, plus 8). There is no "goalkeeper" in rugby union, instead there is a "fullback", although it must be said that the fullback in rugby union is not required to guard a goal in the same way that a goalkeeper does.
Comparison of Canadian football and rugby union is not permitted in rugby union and would be considered 'obstruction', resulting in a penalty. A touchdown is the Canadian equivalent of a try. Unlike Canadian football, both codes of rugby require the ball to be grounded, whereas in Canadian football it is sufficient for the ball to enter the end zone (in-goal area) when in the possession of a player (making the term "touchdown" a misnomer). In Canadian football a touchdown scores 6 points; in rugby union a try is worth 5 points. In both games, following a try / touchdown, there is the opportunity to score additional points
