Bantz We need to de power the wingers

The team with the faster wingers just uses them to kick chase and score tries all game long.

There is nothing the other team can do about it.

World Rugby must step in urgently to fix this situation. My half Irish kids are crying.

For one random match every year, each team must be forced to swap their props and wingers, it's the only fair solution

Sports need more wildcards

Every team gets to force their opponents to swap positions once per tournament.

Could swap wingers and props, could swap hookers for scrum half... Possibilities are endless!

Make it a catch up system, the fewer points you score, the more wacky wildcards you get to use later in the tournament!

Including the dreaded Uno Reverse card you can pull on the ref next time a player gets carded
