No doubt the funny thing about the movie will be how it misses the point of the whole deal.

Mandela used union because it was such a pillar of apartheid. He has no great love for the game, as he reveals in his private life.

Quote: Dico "You do realise that's the wrong sport son Of course he does, but the non-rugby community in Jacksonville (which is almost everyone there) does not. As they see the Axemen become the leading rugby club in town, chances are rugby will come to mean RL to them, rather than RU. icon_biggrin.gif

Exactly. USA fans do not know about the rift between the codes and it is best left that way. The Fans will decide for themselves what they like best and what sport they come to associate with RUGBY.

To be honest it is very refreshing to allow fans to enjoy either or both codes and have them make a determination without being cohersed due to the bitterness that some still harbor between the codes.

It is the rawest form of selection and if they have to choose then I hope it is League, but the truth is that it would be great to have fans enjoy both codes without feeling as if they have to "take sides"
