Watch Global Rapid Rugby LIVE on RugbyPass
By RugbyPass
The Western Force and their loyal Sea of Blue fanbase will be ready to unleash this Saturday when Global Rapid Rugby gets underway in Perth.
Six teams will compete for $1 million in prize money in a competition that features a number of rule changes that promote faster, attacking rugby.
All fixtures will be streamed LIVE right here on RugbyPass via our YouTube channel.
The Force played a series of exhibition games in 2018, which was followed by a Showcase Series last year but 2020 is the official launch of GRR, with competition points and a grand final berth now on the line.
It all begins on Saturday in a double header at HBF Park, with Manuma Samoa taking on South China Tigers, before the Western Force do battle with a Malaysia Valke outfit featuring plenty of South African players. The other round-one fixture will be Fijian Latui hosting the China Lions under lights in Suva. Watch it all live right here on RugbyPass.

I'll be happy to see Cudmore get his chance again, but I'm against revising history to make Cudmore look better by describing his tweets as "crass but not outrageous" and "stupid". He would've been fired from any international job for the stuff he tweeted. "Decolonize 9th place" during a time when bodies were being discovered under Residential Schools? Actively rooting for the defeat of your own union on the world stage?
Jamie, how about making an updated public apology paired with putting your hand up for the RC coaching job? Get the public on your side, show that you've grown, and show that you're mature enough to lead our NSMT. We know you're skilled and experienced enough, but you know that's not the issue here.
You say you've put your hand up and apologized, but the last time you apologized to the rugby community was when you tweeted "I'm sorry if I've offended anyone", which is the most obvious non-apology in the English language.
