Team GB Daily: Day 2


Recommended Posts

Why are we so bad at 7s? I'm sure the answer is money but surely it wouldn't take that much to run a half decent men's team and to be good enough to give the Aussie women a match? Team sports are the perennial disappointment at the Olympics which is so frustrating when you compare participation to rowing or some of the other events.

Because rugby, like football,  is run on a Four* Nations’ basis & London 2012 aside, no-one wants to sacrifice their best youth development prospects for a once-in-a-blue-moon competition.

 

* OK, three for rugby, four for football.
