@Billy-Webb yes - but he has always been an average scrumhalf but electric rugby player.

:I was really proud of those boys bravery after the card. Especially considering they’re being coached by the rugby equivalent of a broken photocopier...
Please enlighten us

:And the coaching at high school and senior level Is basically appalling. But the talent is there. All we need is for someone to pull finger out and establish connections with the NZRU or Ireland or England and get the resources out here.
I was only half-joking when I volunteered you for a coaching role
But maybe administration is the real issue?

@Smuts Rugby league is making bigger inroads into Toronto than union, and in a far shorter time.

@MiketheSnow Schalla is a legend - but you’d expect that from an oke who passed through the madhouse of Wilgenhof res - beloved by Doc Craven and producer of Morne du Plessis and Jannie Smuts.

@Salacious-Crumb the Wolfpack (League team just promoted to the Super League) have a good product but the Arrows (MLR franchise) have far more natural support.
And as a participation sport, league simply doesn’t feature in Canada.
-
@Smuts Purely anecdotal. Been up to Canada twice this year. Fuckall coverage of Union in the Star and Globe and Mail, but surprising amount of coverage of their League team in both.

@Salacious-Crumb fair enough. Yet another reason why I resent our press.
