RFU ready to ban any male player who joins R360 league from international duty
The Rugby Football Union (RFU) is planning to ban any male player who joins the R360 league from representing England internationally. This move comes as a response to R360's recruitment plans, which have been met with opposition from the sport's traditional governing bodies. The Women's Six Nations clash may also lead to changes in the rules for the Red Roses team. The international players' union has informed its members that it will not endorse the new R360 competition, which is backed by former player Mike Tindall and has secured funding from private equity firms. The RFU's decision is expected to be formally announced as soon as next week, as the governing body seeks to maintain control over the sport's landscape.
