We want Rugby at the Olympic Games:

Cause its the best sport and does not get the publicity it deserves

Fits the format well and will bring more exitement & interest to an already outstanding competition. It will also help develop rugby in more countries.

because rugby is not for fairies and is the greatest sport ever!!

Because it is the most engaging sport for all nstions!

Would be a great spectacle

Rugby is the best Team sport in the World

It should be an olympic sport because it is so exciting! and puts you on the edge of your seat, for a long time! also it is a great day out and a good time to be had by all!

They have every other sport why not rugby the greatest sport of all!

It has 96 countries playing it, is a great sport, and a proper team game - one of the few sports worth playing/watching. It also has a great camaraderie.

'cause it is so much better than wussball!!!

It includes all important attributes of sport: fitness, competition, teamwork, leadership, skill and is great to play and watch

it is a professional sport!

It just has to be there - football is why not a decent ball game?

It's the best sport in the world by miles!

its a great sport, there are so many fans who would support, it will bring in something new and fresh to the olympics wich will also bring in lots of money and profit. we already have so many rugby stadiams that there is no need to build others which will save time and money. it will also bring in so much tourism not only because its a great sport and deserves a spot in the olympics but also because it has never been done before, it will be a revilution which would of started here in england in the 2012 london olymics.,

The ultimate sport for all shapes and sizes with genuine sporting ethos

It worked exceptionally well at the Manchester Commonwealth games. It would bring inclusivity to many very small nations

It's a good sport and is alot better than clay peigon shooting and table tennis

its the best sport in the world FACT

Simply, 7's in an exciting sport, mixing pace, flair and power, unlike the 15's games this is easy for a neutral to watch as there is plently of skill on show and a feast of tries, not forgetting teh big hits. Lets not also forget that 7's is a game where the accomplished rugby nations of New zealand, england australia etc are constantly pushed by teh lieks of kenya, usa and canada, many lower natiiona compete strongly in teh 7s and is one of the most open games possible, simply put, 7's is a must for teh olympics, rugby as a spor shares te same ideals as the olymipcs, competition, sportsmanship and cammeradiere

It will be facanating to watch and it will be a lot more fun and bring the olipics alive plus GB is well known for rugby

Rugby is a great team game that require skill and precision, it being an established international sport al;ready will also draw crowds, these assets would make it successful for the games.

because its fucking awesome!

great game that fits well into the olympic ethic

Because its the best sport in the world it should be already in the olympics

Rugby is such a popular sport and would be well supported by many fans all over the world.

Best sport for team work and sporting ethics

its a quality sport

Give many nations who would nt otherwise an opportunity to win a medal. Great fast paced exciting game, will help improve the sports reputation

Rugby 7's is a great spectator sport.

It is the best sport ever!!

Why not? It's a great team sport, many nations around the world are already participating with a strong 7s team with little or no 15s team. It's a great spectacle, games are short and action packed, and upsets can and do happen. Plus it puts massive demands on the players in terms of fitness and training and would fit in well with the Olympic tradition.

Because it's the best sport in the world!

Rugby has just as much right as any team ball sport (like hockey, or football), to be in the Olympics. Plus it's the ideal sport to introduce for London 2012 following England's World Cup victory.

7s is a quick dynamic game, displaying true athleticism, teamwork respect and discipline. extremely enjoyable just look at the sevens final in london 2009!

Sevens is a world class game that desrves a chance

Great spectator sport watched already by millions in many countries.

It is a lively game, and should be recognised more

Rugby 7's should definitely be in the olympic games, its becoming extremely popular. Unlike the 15 a side game, rugby 7's is a lot simpler, therefore a lot easier to play and there isn't the same gulf of talent between the new teams and the teams that have been playing for years, e.g. NZ, Aus, SA, England, France, Wales etc. we are seeing teams like kenya make real inroads in the competition. 7's makes for a great spectacle and can bring in huge crowds unlike other lesser known sports such as handball which have somehow made it into the games.

Rugby should be in the olympics as it is a fantastic game which will add more spirit and passion to the olympics

Already a world appreciated sport and played with amateur values.

such a greta sport to play and watch!!

becuase football is, enough said

Because its the best sport!

Because rugby is fast and thrilling!

Rugby is a sport that is far too polular not to be involved in the bigeest sporting event in the world.

It is a sport played throughout the world, in the olympic spirit, involving high levels of skill, fitness and tactical awareness.

Because it is the best sport in the world

I think the question is why shouldn't it! And there are no reasons!

It will get youngsters involved and provide financial support for small countries

Sevens is a fantastic game and should be in the olympics. It is a quick short game that is amazing to watch

Will Bring a different crowed to watch the Olympics, i.e more viewers.

Because its amazing

Because its an exciting, fast, free flowing sport which all people from all over the world love

I believe sevens should be in the world cup, as it is already in the commonwealth games. So many nations join the sevens circuit, and we could get Fiji or Samoa, winning a gold medal in the olympics which would be brilliant for such small nations!

Because it is played world wide, certainly more so than ice hockey which is in the winter olympics.

cause it is basically a religeon

because it is the best sport in the world

Because it is an established team sport played in many countries and because of the smaller squad sizes does not descriminate smaller countries from taking part. For example, it would allow the pacific Islands to truly compete in a team competition. Also the spirt shown by the fans and the way the game is played has a lot in common with the Olympic movement. Its good to watch also!
