I realise that most of you will have no interest in this but this is mainly for those of us in the USA.
I just read this article... http://www.rugbymag.com/news/colleges/collegemen/possible-collegiate-rsl-has-ripple-effect.aspx
Is this for real? Where do they expect to get the money to pay travel expenses?
My experience with the collegate game is that, except in rare circumstances such as the military academys, the players get to games by carpooling. One major drawback to a club rugby team attempting to play opponents in the varsity sports conference is the incredable distances involved every other week or so.
Who is going to pay for this?
Who is even going to ensure that players stay sober as they make the eight hour drive one way?
What happens to the small schools that may be the only school in their conference that even has a rugby club? Are they going to be kicked to the side because everyone else has "conference games" to play?
