Major League Rugby: 2 Teams Fail, New Team Joins… Players Dispersed

NOTE: We’re again borrowing from our partners at www.RugbyWrapUp.com as per some scheduling kerfuffle. Don’t hate!

NEW YORK, NYAre Major League Rugby’s players and owners in their first big fight? USA Rugby/MLR star Nick Civetta, representing the United States Rugby Players Association (USRPA), pleads the players’ case re the fallout of LA and Austin dropping out of the league, only to be replaced by Chicago. Are the Expansion and Supplemental Drafts fair? Are player contracts one-sided? Is the salary cap realistic? Are the owners acting in good faith? With Matt McCarthy countering, these questions and more are addressed. Also, Civetta addresses why Team USA’s men find themselves fighting for their Rugby World Cup lives in a repechage tournament far, far away.
