Just when you think Women’s Rugby is getting some due credit, this bag of crap: THREAD WARNING

Currently a tournament is taking place in the US featuring NZ, England, Canada, France and the US. It’s called the Super Series. Except things ain’t that super.

The playing field in San Diego?
It’s been described as barely fit for a training run. And it’s a training field.

The changing sheds?
A tent with a portable toilet. I can’t actually retype that. I am shaking my head too much.

The grandstand?
Nope. Fans are asked to bring their own seats. BRING THEIR OWN SEATS!

Chase a ball out of play?
Nope. Rattlesnakes might get ya.
RATTLE FUCKING SNAKES!

These are the conditions for the TOP FIVE WOMENS TEAMS IN THE WORLD. I mean, really?

Goes without saying (but let’s just keep saying it anyway) that this would never, ever, ever, ever happen for the men.

And before you assume anything, None of teams have complained. As usual, they’ve just rolled up the sleeves and got on with it.

Well, screw that. I’ll complain for them.

(Consider this thread a complaint)

FYI: this is what the press release said:

“World Rugby’s support and investment in this competition speaks volumes of their commitment to improving high performance competition structures and quality of the top-end product of the Women’s Game.”
