We want Rugby at the Olympic Games:

It's about time that the world can have the chance to see, learn and get engaged!

Rugby, the best game in the world!

How could an amazing sport like this NOT be in the olympics? It has everything needed to be entertaining as well as being caracterized as a sport.

The sport combines fitness, strength and respect for the laws, players and most of all the referees.

Rugby is one of the greatest sports in the world, and with it's uniqe combination of inclusion and good spirit, it should be an obvious sport to include into the olymic games.

Because it´s an awesome sport!

It is a sport that models the character and strength of young people. Builds up team spirit. It does not require very specialized facilities or equipment, been accessible for many. It is of social and health importance for all of us.

Because its a fantastic sport.

its a fantastic sport which is good watching, wether people knows the rules or not

Rugby should be olympic because it's a huge game internationally, and few current olympic games live up to the olympic motto in similar way.

Because it's a much larger sport than many of the other sports that are already in the olympics. I

Highly entertaining, played ALL over the world (incl. Norway!)

Because it's one of the major sports with the best team spirits. Players also show a lot more respect to referees than for example football.

Great way for people who don't know what it is to get knowledge of the sport.

Because it should...simple as that.

Because its a leading world sport, its thrilling to watch (altho largely incomprehensible to those unaware of the scrummaging rules), and should have been accepted long ago in preference to abyssmally boring events like equestrianism, swimming,fencing and tiddley-winks!

Rugby is a sport that brings out the best all around athletes demanding every element of speed, endurance, power, thinking, balance, the list goes on. However, the best thing it brings out is great friendships and deeper bonds than any sport. The 7's would make the olympics incredibly exciting and bring a group of millions of fans, players, supports that traditionally may not participate in the olympics.

Because it is the best teamsport in the world :)

cause its the sport that requiers the most the competators:)

its as intense,exciting and now unpredictable like,or more than some of the current sporting competitions.

Team spirit, courage, respect!!!

It is fun, it exists all over the world and it creates friendship and respect between people. Besides it is fun watching it!

Rugby is one of the most spectaculars sports in the world and it's a way of life.

It's the most entertaining sport.

its the best!

Because it's my favourite sport to watch and play!

Why not?

BECAUSE IT IS A WIDE-SPREAD SPORT!

Because it is the best sport ever and is a fantastic way to unite the world!

Because it's truly a brilliant game

because its really exciting and multiple teams can win.

It is a sport that has enough national teams to take part in the Olympics! I see no reason why it should not be a part of the Olympics

It's a spectacular sport with many followers and they are increasing by the day.

Because its fan base is ever increasing, and the players are true athletes - proper olympians if you like.

As a team game rugby is the panicle test of strength and endurance. It also embodies the Olympic ethos like no other sport. We are the worst of enemies on the pitch and the best of friend off it.

Because it is the ultimate team sport, and if it becomes an Olympic sport we will have an easier job promoting rugby in Norway

Because it's great fun, and as much of a sport as anything else. (e.g. soccer)

because fun to watch and then more people know what it is

Pierre de Caubertin played rugby, so must be in the spirit of Olympics!

rugby is a fantastic sport both to play and watch full of respect for opponent but a sport who is unkown by too many people getting rugby in the olympics will give better knowledge to lot of people as well as rugby represent many of the olympic ideal

It's a good sport.
