Rugby not keen on following Twenty20 route

Interesting to see Eddie Jones' (former Australia rugby coach) comments about the new laws that have been brought in to rugby in an attempt to make it more entertaining. The difference in rugby is that they are trying to convert the "proper" version of the game to be more "exciting", where as cricket has 3 separate versions, rather than tinkering with Test match laws.

You can read his comments here. It will be interesting to see if he's right and a third version of rugby springs up alongside 7 a-side and 15 a-side.
