Was hoping league development in South Africa with Abdy in charge, now he's gone lol. They should be invading all rugby nations, Argentina, Ireland, France, split and improve UK so you get Scotland and Wales. I'm not sure why they kept doing the Vegas gimmick, they should take it south to Argentina, and Europe, SA, imagine a latino crowd loving this game and Argentina vs Tonga

Ahhh that is interesting.

People in league circles had this idea, to improve the quality of the world cups, combine all the Island nations, thank goodness that never happened.

Moana was funded by a pacific health initiative in the hopes of inspiring the community ... probably not the best use of resources really

It'll be interesting to see what the liquidators make of the NZRU stepping in to pay wages and expenses so that their final game goes ahead - and head off a claim from Sky and the overseas broadcasters for undelivered content - the government obviously thinks that this makes the NZRU and its directors liable for all of the creditors (including the NZ taxpayer)

Rugby used to be the peoples game. The clubs ruled. Every club had that guy, or guys and girls that turned up week after week who did what was needed, no matter how menial and kept it going. They just turned up and kept turning up and asked for nothing. Remember going to grounds and always some old guy checking the passes, voluntarily

Now the suits have control. This happened to the Warriors too. They are winning niw because they have kept ticket prices in reach of ordinary workers.
