Quote ="easyWire"The main selling point of our game (on the pitch anyway) was the open attacking rugby. I know that defences win games, but I also believe there is a lot we can do to improve the attacking side of the sport, to make it a more attractive prospect to new fans. There's nothing better than watching some end-to-end free-flowing rugby that has people on their feet (in the seated areas). There aren't many x-factor players these days, and the ones who are nearly x-factor rarely get the space to demonstrate their skills or pace.'"
You can have the best product / sport in the world, but if nobody knows about it then what is the point?
The quality of the sport is not the reason for stagnation / a lack of growth.
