Hey guys there's a petition to help get rugby into the Olympic Games.

Are they talking about 7's or the 15 man game? I think 7's should be included, not the 15 man game.

It looks like it's sevens rugby Mephisto.

Of course, Sevens rugby is spectacular, high-scoring, fast-paced, exciting and - most importantly - easy to understand. It is a perfect gateway for all forms of rugby to enjoy growth and large international support. No doubt, Sevens and the fan culture will add a lot of character and colour to the Games.

Ah sweet, then I'll add my 'signature' ...... would be cool to have something worth watching at the Olympics.

Woot, so Gymnastics and Diving will now have another sport to share my viewing time with.

Well if they do take Sevens to the Olympics, we may be in with a better chance of winning a medal next time.

Apparently they have this "athletics" thing Can't imagine it being very popular at all.

You oke's are chops, there's plenty to watch at the olympics..I watch as much as I can - Badminton, tabletennis, swimming, sprints, high jump, gymnastics, weight lifting, rowing, diving.

Rugby will be a good addition, atleast we will have a chance of getting a medal
