All this RFU say this RFU say that really means Baron dictates, Baron threatens; its time to stand against him/them
There is enough money in the Premiership for the teams to make a huge stand if they wish and players will support it to look after their own futures.
A break-away league without using Twickenham borrowing some football sheds for a year would make the RFU stand up. Change the team name to Rugby England instead of England rugby and enter the world cup like that!
Only a few players that are centrally contracted would be out of the equation.
I dont think an England team comprising solely of Andy Farrell would win much though.
Lets see the players, teams and fans win.
Sorry just getttin ga little passionate and worked up!
The premiership is no longer a way to breed players just for the England corporate set u, it can stand on it's own. Use some of that power to knock down the ivory tower of Baron!!!

Come on Tigers!!!
Spoken with passion by Deano, a man for whom most English rugby supporters have great respect and a man who has achieved more than any of the current RFU gang.
Still, I'm afraid that counts for nothing in Rugby politics. If it did he would be running the England rugby team now, but I'm afraid he's not a 'yes-man' is he.

Well said tigerescrums, you are not alone with that thought, it is only a matter of time before the clubs breakaway from the RFU, the damage was done when it was leaked that the RFU wanted to shut us down and transfer us to Coventry.TigerScrums wrote:All this RFU say this RFU say that really means Baron dictates, Baron threatens; its time to stand against him/them

It is all going to end in tears guys!! Down to the IRB to sort out I guess.
As I have said elsewhere, IMHO Baron and Thomas have brought the game into disrepute. And they should be so charged. And sent into the wilderness never to be seen again.
England won the World Cup DESPITE the RFU and because Sir Clive managed to harness the drive, motivation and talent of some great players whilst telling the RFU, very politely, to make love elsewhere.
We have the club structure, the players and the coaches to make England (again) the best rugby playing nation in the world. Alas we do not have the governance and management structures. Rather we have a load of power mad meglomaniacs who want to control everything.
They ought to find a brewary to go and mismanage!!
