Yet, strikingly, the new MPGP does not appear to tackle this fundamental problem (which results from the lack of funding and commercialisation of the second tier) and the Championship clubs are excluded from the MPGP.

It is disappointing that the opportunity has been missed to remedy this chronic issue, which will, no doubt, continue to plague the competition. What do you make of today's announcement? Let me know in the comments. ⬇ #Rugby #SportsLaw #EnglandRugby

Two 'tough matches' to prepare for their WXV1 title defence will be a challenge for England. But it isn't a surprise to hear that Red Roses Maud Muir and Tatyana Heard are relishing the prospect of facing France in their first warm-up game at Kingsholm. ✍️ Will Gupwell πŸ“Έ RFU

Fylde hold the bragging rights v Sheffield RUFC (13 wins v 8) but that will mean nothing when the clubs meet on Sat at Abbeydale Park (ko 3pm). 2 very tight encounters last season. Match preview at bit.ly/3yWHJ1f Very tough opener for the visitors.
