Not relevant to the point, heās going off to do something different for a few months.
Modern world of sport.
If you say so.
Is he still going to play club rubby?
How different is rugby to 7s rugby? Same rules and skills just take out the fat lads?
Would you say the FIFA World Cup is the most prestigious completion in football?
Different specialism. You canāt compare a Serevi to a McCaw, for example.
