The 1014 Podcast - Rugby The Global Game

I hope that administrators keep it that way and dont go further towards a Rugby League style situation.

Keep? Do you have any idea what league is like? That is what rugby has turned into, not where it's trying to go. The universal body type of mass, the game needs to stop heading towards the physically gifted and go back to its roots of how it's played. Much like how SA are trying to add to their game by taking advantage of new laws.

Why not rather empower teams to choose how they want to play and create a framework that favours neither size nor agility. That favours neither slow tempo play or rock n roll rugby.

That's what's happening, but as Nick suggests the slow tempo team can still too easyily dictate how the fast tempo team can play.

If World Rugby can create a game like that then it will be the ultimate winner.

You mean how rugby used to be before teams started trying to manipulate everything to take advantage for their own gain to the discredit of the game.

Is that "paid" or compensated?
