Re: 7 Rugby at the Olympics

Yeah it's a first. But it's not "real" rugby, 15 on 15, it's 7 on 7 Rugby, and because they play on the same field, same size, there's lot more space so it's fun to watch.

I think the Olympics didn't want to add Rugby because there are already a lot of international competitions and the Olympics wouldn't have matter. It would be like soccer, it's at the Olympics but nobody cares because there are other soccer competitions that matter more.

But 7 Rugby is less known than 15 Rugby, so they decided to take a shot. I guess.
