Breakaway R360 league launch dealt blow after World Rugby application withdrawn
The proposed R360 breakaway rugby league has faced a setback after its application for sanctioning by World Rugby was withdrawn. The application, which was scheduled to be discussed by the World Rugby Council on September 23, has now been deferred until at least next June. This delay raises doubts about the league's planned launch in September 2023, as the withdrawal of the application suggests that the organizers are still working to address concerns and obtain the necessary approvals. The article notes that the decision to defer the application has dealt a blow to the league's launch timeline, which now appears unrealistic given the extended timeline for securing World Rugby's approval.
