Agree.
And there's an interesting report tv show "Rugby Club" on Channel 7 Krasnoyarsk. Journalists are now channel 7 in New Zealand and make the material, the first program o frugby will appear on TV in April! I had an idea of ​​international flash mob on 7 channel, with the aim that people from all over the world want to watch full matches Krasny Yar and Yenisei-STM on 7 channel (can be via the Internet).
I created a topic in the blog about the Rugby on 7 channels site, you can write something there. Possible in English, there will understand. The more people from different countries to write, the greater the chances that Russian rugby on TV.:rolleyes:

Generally, in Soviet times, Taganrog played several seasons in the Super League. Now they have a young team with no foreign players, a lot of local guys. Maybe before the season starts they will sign some experienced players.
They invited the new head coach Vyacheslav Grachev, who played for the Bears in the World Cup, he played the last few years in France.
Of course, in the first season they will fight the maximum for 8-9 place. But in the long runI think the Bulava would be a strong club Super League.
Taganrog - a city in southern Russia with a population of 250,000. Now in the major leagues from Taganrog only RC Bulava. They have prospects.

No foreign players are you sure?
When i see the 2012 squad, they have 3 ukrainians (ex-RC Olimp Kharkov including 2 internationals) and 3 moldovans (2 internationals : Toderica (ex-Enisey) and Etveev)
 
Technically yes, but they are hard to name legionnaires mentally.:)
Unfortunately they have no money on foreign players from New Zealand.

Inside from Taganrog. Club management is in talks with Konstantin Rachkov!

Went to this game, VVA were good value for their halftime deficit, the Wandies going in at HT leading because of a final play try. However conditioning won through as the were blowing out their backsides by 50 minutes. The sin binning was the final straw for them.
 
The game vs Sale Jets has been pushed back until Tuesday evening now (not sure why).
I'm looking forward to seeing what side we put out.
