Good write-up on the current issues that have the MLR players seeking to unionize. The three main demands are

  • contract security
  • better working conditions
  • league-provided healthcare.

The working conditions relate to the quality and condition of the venues where matches are played.

SAN DIEGO, CA – As we head into the last three rounds of this tres bien Major League Rugby season, some players are stand head and shoulders above the many solid MLR players. San Diego Legion star Nate Augspurger is one such player. In an out-of-the box iMLR Weekly nterview that includes Burt Reynolds being compared to mythical prop Chris Baumann, WWE star-turned-actor Dave Bautista’s relationship to scrum coach Alex Corbisiero and Minnesota vs Southern Cal, Nate is refreshingly honest and entertaining.

Quoted from Twitter:

Time for Major League Rugby to recognize the players & negotiate in good faith. Either @usmlr voluntarily recognizes @USARugbyPlayers, or we will be filing with the National Labor Relations Board (NLRB) next week. #RugbyUnionNow
