[QUOTE="Car, post: 718748, member: 72474"] The 7s World Series is even shown in a country like Poland. Plenty of countries are now getting into the game since it is Olympic. Just by becoming part of the Olympic Games, it already helped rugby grow pretty much all over the world. There are countries like Russia where only Olympic sports are played in schools, in Germany, rugby players willing to play 7s might become "sports soldiers" etc. I'm not a big fan of it myself, but if there's a way for rugby to grow globally, 7s seems to have the best chances. Although it might actually hurt 15s in countries where that variety isn't developed yet. [/QUOTE]
