I really think a lot of international rugby feels like bullying, hard to enjoy even as a fan of the winning team

(True in a lot of men's rugby too, where England sometimes have 5+ times the active male players to choose from)

One of the reasons I prefer 7s > 15s is that it genuinely feels like even the weaker programs have a chance Not always, but at least more often, you get genuine chances for upsets

That makes sense - shorter matches and more chance of breakaways means more variance 👍👍

This is like watching an opposed practice where coach tells the defense "just get in the way a little"
