COUNTRY LIST UPDATES (26.04)

The following country lists have been updated. Go to country alphabetical lists at the top of the page.

Rugby In Japan Vol.6 No.16

Ian McDonnell’s latest newsletter has the Japan squad details for the first Asia5Nations game against Kazakhstan. There is also the latest on the bidding for the hosting of the 2015 and 2019 Rugby World Cups. The time is close for decision time. Presentations are made in Dublin in May with decisions to be made in July.

Rugby in Japan Vol.6 No.15

Ian McDonnell has safely moved into his new abode in Japan. He has sent two newsletters in quick succession which has caught RugInt unawares due to the Easter break here in Australia. There wasn’t a No.13 as Ian was in the middle of his move.

Both newsletters are crammed-pack full of local news about this wonderful game in Japan. He has concentrated on the national 7’s team and the Under 20 team’s tour to Wales. These newsletters make excellent reading. I’m looking for others around the world to think of trying your own newsletter from where you live, especially Tier 2 nations whose coverage on the internet is limited.
