Inconsistency in Replacement section?
In the section about Replacement and substitutions, it is said that "In international matches, up to eight replacements are allowed; in domestic or cross-border tournaments, at the discretion of the responsible national union(s), the number may be increased to eight" which seems weird. I don't know whether one or the other number needs to be changed or whether they are indeed equal, in which case the sentence should probably be rewritten? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 85.168.10.172 (talk) 22:27, 24 February 2016 (UTC)


 * Thanks for pointing this out. One end of the sentence was probably updated without the editor reading the front of it. I've corrected it. FruitMonkey (talk) 18:12, 25 February 2016 (UTC)

((Les pépites pourrissant ))
Le Rugby est presque pratiqué un peut partout dans l'Afrique. Des pays comme le Niger, Mali, Burkina Faso etc... Formes des jeunes talentueux expérimenté et qui finissent par tourner le dos à se sport juste parceque les revenu ne sont pas certaine. Au Niger le Rugby empêche même à d'autres d'étudier ,c la passion à se sport... Le Niger a une école de Rugby qui forme pleine de talentueux. En septembre 2018 l'équipe Nationale de rugby à 7 Nationale à accueilli 3 enfants ..tels que Moubarak 20ans ,Ismaël 20ans,ibrahim18ans. Qui sont sans club mais passionné. À la recherche des clubs !

Source of Rugby’s Origin
Can anybody offer a good source on Rugby’s origins? I’ve seen some stuff but nothing particularly authoritative. Sportismygame (talk) 22:23, 16 December 2020 (UTC)
