[TEXTAREA]Former England captain Bill Beaumont was on Wednesday elected chairperson of World Rugby, vowing to "repay the game" that made him a star and address concussion concerns.[/TEXTAREA]
[TEXTAREA]"The sport is in excellent health and over the next four years there will be many great opportunities to further develop and grow the game.
"However, we cannot be complacent. Rugby, like all sports, faces challenges and my manifesto outlines the five priorities focused on addressing these.
"These priorities are continuing to protect players, preserving integrity, enhancing global competition, optimising partnerships and empowering and strengthening unions."[/TEXTAREA]
Preserving integrity, protecting players and strengthening Unions... I hope this means that World Rugby will address the "transformation issue" that is currently undermining these 3 priorities of his manifesto.
