wish it would catch on in the U.S. instead of soccer.


Soccer has already caught on. I don't think over the next 2 decades rugby will become much bigger and eventually supplant the NFL when people quit playing due to health concerns.

With the way our 7's team is playing, WHEN they win the Olympics in Tokyo, it'll be a very good thing for rugby in this country.

Our coaches finally realized they could field a 7's team with 6 'real' rugby players and teach a former track/football star how to play rugby to fill the 7th spot. The results with Carlin Isles and Perry Baker have been a meteoric rise for the US in the world 7's rankings.
The US is all smiles and the rest of the rugby world is pissed.
