NEP Ireland’s Post

With Chile Rugby highlighted in the below article it should be noted that on the weekend when the Chilian Condors beat Canada it was with a team that had higher levels of #Cohesion (as measured by #CohesionAnalytics) than Rugby Canada and with the #Cohesion created by less games compared to Canada - Strong alignment allows efficient creation of #Cohesion.

Off topic, but for Australian Rugby enthusiasts, the following revised Sydney/NSW Schoolboy competition proposal for 2025 provides an example of how institutions can change, this proposal must have Sydney/NSW Schoolboy Rugby and the future improvement of Rugby in Australia at its core - a great step in the right direction for Rugby in Australia https://lnkd.in/g-nZBa5J

https://lnkd.in/etRfAxUR I think that I read over a 100 comments on this and a number of related articles. And ultimately I come down in favour of the process as the Tier 2 Board includes existing Championship representation. In addition, selection of the two new clubs is based on a set of criteria that is consistent with creating a sound foundation including: (1) Minimum Operating Standards. (2) Finanacial Viability. (3) Player base, competiveness, commercial and geography. So the clubs' proposals should have to demonstrate that they are viable and have an expansion agenda. Interestingly, this would suggest that they should not all be based in south or west London as they would be competing against possibly Ealing Trailfinders Rugby Club and definitely Harlequins and Saracens Group so in conflict with arguably (2) and certainly (3). But it does suggest London Irish Rugby Club, Wasps and Worcester Warriors might meed to adopt a flexible, franchise style approach to hit the mark. But I would like to know: (a) Who will be on the tender panel? (b) How will the money be used? (security or investment elsewhere in the levels below Premiership Rugby, other ways of improving supporter and player involvement). (c) More detailed criteria...at present it lacks the credibility of a properly robust process with a level playing field. And interestingly if any previously wound up clubs were to exist in a new format but with the same investors or using collateral from the previous incarnation, what would England Rugby and the Rugby Players Association have to say about unpaid rugby debts? So good start, but would definitely like more information as I am sure many other supporters would too.
