Rugby Pass Podcast: Is it Time For Women's Rugby to Go Pro?
By RugbyPass
This week on the pod Scotty Stevenson is joined by Melodie Robinson, a two-time World Cup winning Black Fern and broadcaster, to talk over the state of women’s rugby. They dig into the lack of coverage given to the women’s game, the need for newsrooms to employ more female rugby reporters, the threat women’s Sevens poses to the 15-a-side game, and whether it’s time for women’s rugby to go pro.

Oh, and there’s also some talk about the weekend’s internationals, and whether rugby players will still be allowed to tackle in the wake of Ireland’s national meltdown this week.

The WRU have a lot of work to do and it needs to be done quickly to avoid rugby being lost to our future generations.
