    Very disappointed

    I don't use the editor, I don't agree with the stats for a lot of the players. Glasgow are outrageous for example, all their players are national level on very low wages yet their stats are basically world class and their smashing the other Pro 12 teams by 30-40 points per game! Basically...

    The Future of Pacific Island Rugby

    The islands are third world economies, in the middle of no where, with low and sporadic populations. Thats the problem, their as developed as their likely to get. There are scouts from all over the world trying to sign the promising players, from colleges in New Zealand and academies in...

    International XV of "could have beens" and obscure players

    15 Justin Thomas - Selected for Wales when playing in Divison 3 for UWIC! Showed amazing potential, yet ended up not being good enough for Caerphilly! 14 Alan Harries - Swansea player showed huge potential then sort of vanished? I honestly thought he was going to take over from Ieuan Evans...

    SA Rugby, NZ to push for global season

    How do you say that? The Six nations play a 3 or 4 week international series from November to December, then play the 6 Nations from January, all we'd simply do is remove the November games against the Sanzaar teams and replace those fixtures with extra games in January to March. Basically...

    NZ vs Wales - June 2016

    New Zealand will tear Wales to pieces, rebuilding phase or not we never fare well in New Zealand, we play England before we start, our players look knackered having gone from the World Cup, to the Six nations, then to the business end of the domestic season where clubs will flog the players...

    SA Rugby, NZ to push for global season

    This debate happens every year since professionalism. The last time it happened clubs in Wales and England were asked about a possible move to summer rugby, and as almost ALL clubs grounds are council owned they were not allowed to play rugby on their pitches during the summer. Many also share...

    GATLAND Is the leading Contender for Lions Coach.

    The Lions tour is possible it just needs a much bigger squad and basically 2 sets of coaches. Everyone is going to have to be clear on who is in the reserves and who is in the main team from the start. 6 Weeks in New Zealand along with some warm up game before hand isn't going to be much fun...

    2016 RBS Six Nations Predictions

    Wales and Ireland is always the same, a bounce of the ball, a referees decision, a mistake is normally the difference. I'd make Ireland favorites simply because Wales always start badly and finish strongly. The Welsh players normally have to be terrified of failure and for the Welsh public to...

    Glasgow being too over powered :(

    Has anyone else noticed how over powered Glasgow seem to be in the game? Each season their easily winning all their league games, and almost ALL their players are classed as star players. I've actually taken a screen shot of their team going into the Final of the league, I also faced them in...

    Questions reference Rugby Team Manager 2015

    Thanks very much, I'm probably going to try and play in France next as Welsh teams don't get promoted or relegated from the Pro12. I'd forgotten about the difficulty level that might be what I'm doing wrong. The wage cap also kills you, because by season three you basically need to abandon...

    Questions reference Rugby Team Manager 2015

    I'd actually given up on ever finding a GOOD rugby management game, but I'm actually really enjoying this. Basically it's not Football Manager but it's a fantastic first effort, assuming it is a first effort because it basically Pro Rugby Manager remade to a large degree, but it's simply vastly...

    Georgia pushing for 6 Nations spot

    I'd hate to see any of the old 5 nations relegated at any point in the future. It's not the rugby it's the fans and the history, there is no way you can convince any British fan that Georgia would be a better game than Scotland. Italy were added to cover the free weekend, but there is no way...

    Best or Worst Rugby Player You Have Met.

    Years ago when I was about 16 I used to go to the gym in Bridgend Recreation center after work occasionally I'd see players from the Bridgend rugby team in there also. One afternoon I was on the rowing machine, there are 4 computerised ones in a row, which you can link up and race. Roddy...
