Re: What is wrong with English rugby?



You sold your rugby souls to a bunch of mostly thieves, con men, and dodgy venture/disaster capitalists who couldn't afford or weren't allowed to buy a soccer team and who then tried to compete financially with the mega rich French and got the clubs into huge debt. Couple this with a RFU run by ...

Canes lucky to get away with not conceding more and possibly a man in the bin, but the Highlanders dodged a huge one tat last scrum down their end. The ref was asleep then the TMO was for the supposed Morgan knock on. The Midget, as is his want, is stinking up the place. After one peanlty, the ref ...
