@mangorugby Mention they should stop charging for access to the scoring data from matches, last thing grassroots rugby needs is to be locked behind a paywall. Sure keep the match reports on a pay per view but at least list the matches and the Tries/Con/Pens values for free like they used to
@PunterRugby@insiderugbymark Really don’t see how this benefits anyone tbh, would much rather give a license to the Georgians/Spaniards/Portuguese and give them a further development opportunity. Are kiwis in NZ actually going to get up for NZFranchise v Zebre/Dragons?

Flair.
In rugby there is a bit of a weird obsession with having a trophy for games between teams.
But i’ve just come across the best one.
The Turtle Cup is contested between 2 clubs from Cordoba in Argentina and is literally just a big Turtle.
You can keep yer Calcutta and Bledisloe
SIGNED: Worcester have strengthened their pack with the addition of a Super Rugby lock.

A hill I will absolutely die on is we shouldn’t be using the Aviva for anything bar maybe a league final IF we make it that year when we get the RDS back
Whether it's Aviva fatigue, style of play or knockout fatigue, the fall in Leinster's crowd since 2024 is stark
