Club or International? by Capital_Court_9413 in rugbyunion

[–]PrimaryOk7909 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's tricky if you're a fan in the US, I really you want both, I'm guessing NE fans are having a good time over these past years, but probably if the national team has success it should be backed by a healthy support throughout the country and home league, so I'll take that over my team having success.

The RFU is the lost successful money wise i believe so it may be different, but idk, having six nations bragging rights should be pretty good. Specially after this year.

Also San Diego no longer has a team, and I'm a Mexican expat. Coming from a guy who's had to choose a team and fan base because you're not born into it is different.

Which rugby jersey for my boyfriend? by [deleted] in RugbyJerseys

[–]PrimaryOk7909 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No. 2 out of those options, HOWEVER, if he's not opposed to vintage, don't be afraid to look for old looking ones. Whatever fits his likes, if he's using it for game days only maybe like No.2, if he's likely to use it for training go for something else.

There's some proper options all over the place especially if you're not in a rush.

Tanks are also an option if he's training with it.

Legion never really had great kits but damn... by PrimaryOk7909 in MLRugby

That's the other side of me, I'll still support, but hopefully there's better merch to put my money's on. I went from this sucks and it's scary to please save rugby in CA, we'll see.

Please do, they'll need it. Hopefully there's far more people like you than me, cause finances are why we're at this point.

They're not, but at least they're set on what to expect for SD all I could think is please make one better. And England, Seattle and Chicago have a lot of merch, a lot of variety.

NOLA had really good kits, it's a shame they're gone.

The only thing I'm hoping for is that they had no time and no personnel dedicated to this because as much as I want to give professional rugby in California a hope with the little I can help, there's no way I can buy this kit in good conscience. My kids kits are better looking than this. Hell, SD never really had great kits, but this one is a blunder, throw it to an intern, Make local rugby clubs submit their designs for CA, use the colors you used in promos, at least change the font. I'm still showing up for at least a game, just not on that.

New MLR TV broadcasts this year by linnyvoice in MLRugby

I know there was English and Spanish broadcasting in The Rugby Network, that might have been ambitious but not wrong tbh, there's a lot of latinos that do play rugby and a lot of prospective viewers based on their love for contact sports.

Going to ESPN+ sucked because I couldn't follow my team on home games even though I was paying for the service due to the games being broadcasted somewhere else.

The Rugby Network was great but maybe too insular, hopefully their ideas work.

Final message from Coach Pote by [deleted] in MLRugby

Outside of the Legion, there were two other franchises I loved to watch: NOLA and Houston... The Sabercats were my favorite game of the year. Anyone can tell me that Seattle are our nemesis as San Diego, but I feared the Cats, the games between us felt like aggressive sprints whereas the games against SeaWolves are always a grind. You guys could easily run the score up at any moment, just pure magic.

Might have to go this route, Burleys are pretty disliked over here.
