Welcome to Rugby Rules!

Welcome to Rugby Rules!! First post. I hope you're as excited as I am.

The goal will be to update this every Friday during the Super Rugby season. Whether you're a seasoned rugby supporter or are new to the game, we hope you stick around!

It's no secret that I've been a Queensland Reds fan for a long time and so a website like this seemed to make sense. Here at Rugby Rules, we'll be posting news and updates about the Reds and Rugby in general and sharing interviews I'll be having with players. We might also share a Rugby rule or two each week as we go!

Training update

The Reds pre-season training is in full swing, and I've been going down to Ballymore to watch them every Thursday afternoon for a few weeks now. Even with the 35 degree heat-wave Brisbane's been having, they've been training hard. If they keep going with the intensity they had this week, I reckon there's no reason they can't go all the way this season. I'm not biased, just speaking the truth.

It was good to catch up with some of the players afterwards, including Moses Sorovi, who's recovering from a knee injury! Fortunately it wasn't serious. Keep your head up, and keep going hard Moses!

While the team keeps training hard, make sure you check back here next week, where we'll be interviewing the Reds skipper, the man himself James Slipper! [Edit: due to Australia Day being on Thursday, we'll have to postpone until next week. Stay tuned.]
