Demarcation
[edit]I'm a bit uneasy about this page being called "History of Rugby Union", as it appropriates the common history of both kinds of Rugby. I mean when the Northern Rugby Union broke away, the intention was not to create a totally different sport, it was simply to allow professionalism. So I think this page should be called "History of Rugby" or "History of Rugby Football". Grant65 (Talk) 18:05, Jul 31, 2004 (UTC)
- No, after the split the two carried on separately. We need to mention here stuff like South Africa and apartheid and the naughty tours, The stuff in the Sout of France with the Vichy government, how several players died during the war, etc. "History of Rugby" would also be bad as it would refer to the town.

The modern age
[edit]I can see why some of the league specific section in the modern era were removed, however unless we have a couple of lines like I just added it may appear the union has succeede in killing league, which it patently hasn't. In fact the growth of amteru rl (up 94%) is mainly due to the ending of union sanctions, particluarly in southern england and in UK schools. Grinner 09:23, Aug 10, 2004 (UTC)
- Its OK by me. But I am going to revert the tense of the sentence starting The Union clubs and national teams to the present tense because they are still benefiting. Philip Baird Shearer 14:10, 11 Aug 2004 (UTC)
