Quote: PopTart "So for me, the fight is to bring publicity to the RU bigatory and show it still happens.
I signed the petition and am very vocal with rugby union snobs but at a school level it should be a parent and governors thing. Getting a petition from rugby league fans is doing exactly what you describe Eastmoor doing.
There are rugby union teams in Cas and Fev.
But I get it. Its a big feeder area and should be protected as much as we can. Just done in the right way. To the rest of union Britain the petition just looks like the scruffy little oiks from the pit village having a chip on their shoulder about the lovely rugby union trying to help kids because it got the facts wrong.'"
You may be right but, could you imagine what they would say if RL was to offer sweeteners just so their boys could "try" RL.
The main difference is that RL would be stopped at the school gates and it wouldn't get to first base, with or without cash incentives.
