@NTA said in Rugby World Cup news:

going to show my ignorance, the top 14 will be playing at the same time as the RWC?

[Stargazer]

@Kiwiwomble Yes, that's why many Top 14 clubs have signed so-called RWC jokers (RWC replacement players) on short-term deals (which apparently can not last beyond approx. 14 November).

@Stargazer id missd that...thats so fucked up...its one thing general international windows, clubs not wanting their players getting injured for1 or 2 international friendlies....but this is the fucking RWC

[booboo]

Hmm, part of the 2003 co-hosting agreement was there was no other rugby on in the countries at the time.

Interesting they're allowing this.
