A really good resource for 'informal english' or 'slang can be found here.

http://www.odps.org

What's more it's quite funny. Apart from the slang dictionary, it also has lists of games, schoolyard songs and rhymes in dictionary format

It even has a selection of 'rugby songs' - though these are a little 'rough around the edges'.
