I think that this would encourage physical activity world wide and be a great opportunity for young people to have a new group of heros

      Rugby is a sport of strategy, endurance, strength, fitness and perseverance. It combines all the elements of human ability into an 80 minute period of continuous play and excitment. To have rugby not on the olympic roster while so many single facetted games are show how out of touch with the root of the olympics the olympic committee has become.
