[QUOTE="Vieux Talonneur, post: 1138630, member: 73144"] Can someone help me get a grip on the dynamics here? In some places WR is described as the game’s governing body, which I’d always lazily assumed was right, but the language it uses on its own website is around a federation with a purpose to grow the game. I assume the governing body must be more or less right, otherwise on what grounds would it be appealing? The game was run by 6 Nations Rugby, but presumably it has to be played under WR’s ultimate auspices in some way? Who are WR appealing to? 6N rugby or direct to the independent panel? And if WR is the governing body, why is it appealing at all? Surely it should be the ultimate arbiter with power to override. Apparently it’s only appealed a couple of times before with a 50% success rate. Whatever the detail, this can only be the right thing to do. [/QUOTE]
