- No grass roots
I taught in a NSW public primary school for 23 years. We had regular visits and programs by AFL, Rugby league , netball , cricket, volleyball but not once a rugby union clinic , promotion or program. There was $100 million dollars allocated by the Australian government to promote sports and physical activity in schools and Rugby union were too lazy or not interested in promoting in our government school . They deserve where their sport has ended up.

Was going to listen but then heard Alan Jones’ voice, and my ears deserve better.
Apple Podcasts2DRmumAustralia2 years ago - Valuable history lesson
Eye opening podcast about an amazing sport that has been ruined by greed and incompetence. It was great hearing the views of ex coaches and players. And I pray that people hear this and want to do more to promote Rugby in Australia. I hope the break down does stories like this for all Australian sports. I was gripped from the get go.

What a load of rubbish. “The game played in heaven” i very much doubt it. Rugger is outdated and know one cares about it.
