BONUS | Gus Pichot: What World Rugby must do to save the sport

Argentine rugby legend Gus Pichot joined Ger Gilroy and Colm Boohig on Off The Ball Breakfast today.

In Dublin for a World Rugby Meeting of Council at which a new Chair will be elected, Pichot, who ran unsuccessfully for the position in 2020, explained to us where he believes the sport is failing in terms of reaching new markets and how these issues can be resolved.

Principally, he believes that the sport's established forces must look beyond their own primary interests and consider how a serious attempt to bridge the gap between rugby's haves and have-nots must be made if the game is to thrive.

This is only one small part of what was a wide-ranging interview. It will be streamed live on the Off The Ball YouTube channel from 9AM on Thursday morning, or is available on demand NOW to all Off The Ball subscribers.
