Very sad that the German Rugby Union came down 2 minutes before the Germany v Serbia game on Saturday and effectively banned a amateur player from playing Rugby League. The player wants to play both Rugby League and Rugby Union but the National Rugby Union trainer he is banned from doing so according to the F.I.R.A Constitution! Its bad enough with that attitude but to do this to a player 2 minutes before kick off and making him feel gutted and letting his teammates down (which he hasnt done!) is unbelievable.

People involved with Rugby union also took down posters promoting the Rugby League game in Heidelberg , threatened players, not to play Rugby League or else they would be dropped to reserve grade, when the Union season starts at the end of August or banned from playing for Germany at Rugby Union as well as causing problems for Germany and Serbia when trying to train for Saturdays game.

Very poor when people have no respect for other people and cant let them make their own decisions. If somebody is getting payed fair enough, but these Union players are amateurs! Thankfully not all people in Rugby Union are so pathetic and although may not like League, dont cause problems. To these people, I hope you enjoy your game and especially the World cup-its just sad others involved in your game are such low life.

Serbia beat Germany 6-38 on Saturday
