A break in June as in Super Rugby is not expected? Still, 4 months is too little. I would like the season to be at least 5 months, and ideally 6 months.

Do you guys have accurate data on the GRR calendar for the season 2020? I understand correctly that 6 month from March to August?

Krasnoyarsk clubs have become even closer to the GRR. The Moscow lobby in the Russian Union does not like that the last 8 years in the finals of the Russian Championship have been playing Enisei-STM against Krasny Yar. They come up with different solutions to weaken the Krasnoyarsk clubs and...

Yes, but he has not played for the main team yet. Therefore, theoretically, he can still play for Russia.

Guys, do you know Russian-Australian rugby players? In the past decade there have been two famous Russian Australians. Adam Byrnes played for Russia on RWC2011. Greg Jeloudev played for Australia in the World Series. I know two young brothers Chipizubov in Sydney. Dimitry Chipizubov (21 years...

The director of the Russian club Enisei-STM wants to conclude a short contract to Folau for 3 months (November, December, January) while participating in the European Challenge Cup 2019-20. But for the Enisei-STM this will be the last tournament in Europe. EPCR is blocking the participation of...

You will be surprised. But since last year, the head of the Russian Rugby Union has been a man more influential than all oligarchs in Russia. Igor Artemyev, for many years he has headed the Federal Antimonopoly Service of Russia. In his youth, he played for the rugby team in Leningrad. He writes...

ThanksThe Honey Badger. If we objectively talk about the whole of Russia. 90% of Russians think that rugby is American football. They are judged by Hollywood films. But Krasnoyarsk is called the rugby capital of Russia, they understand rugby. The two strongest Russian clubs of the last 30 years...

Krasnoyarsk Time +1 from Perth and +2 from Tokyo. Attendance will be several thousand each game. Now the new Enisei-STM Stadium has about 3,000 seats. They will build a second stand. Stadium will be more than 5,000 seats. Krasny Yar Stadium 3,600 seats. But there is still the Central Stadium...

The fact is that two Russian clubs from Krasnoyarsk want play in a tournament with strong rivals. In Russian Champ, they are not interested. And participation in the European Challenge Cup at 99% for them will block. EPCR will give up two place in the Challenge Cup to South Africans from PRO14...

Alexander Pervukhin Director of the Russian club Enisei-STM is ready to offer a short three-month contract for Folau for the duration of the club's participation in the European Challenge Cup (November - January). How do you think Izzy can agree to go to Russia? I think that the monthly salary...

If there are many teams. There is an option without conferences, but playing as in Super Rugby with each opponent only 1 game.

Absolutely similar arguments led the Europeans, so as not to fly once to Krasnoyarsk. I then, in the season 2016-17, calculated for them the distance that the Enisei-STM and Krasny Yar overcame that season. These are only matches in European competitions Challenge Cup and Continental Shield. In...

On the forum Western Forse saw some posts. I will answer here. 1. European clubs rarely flew to the games in Krasnoyarsk not because of Russian visas. To play in Moscow or Sochi, they also needed to receive Russian visas. But they say about bad weather in Krasnoyarsk in November. But several...

So another six months before the start of the Challenge Cup. There is a lot of time to negotiate with Folau. But first, Pervukhin should talk to the sponsors and the Russian Rugby Union.

Krasny Yar can play their matches at the Central Stadium. There is also heating. I also see risks in March. But is it really impossible to resolve this issue so that Krasny Yar and Enisei play the first matches on away. And in April in Krasnoyarsk, normal weather for rugby. Distances for the...

I recall players from the southern hemisphere who played for Enisei-STM and Krasny Yar in different years. So you understand that Krasnoyarsk is not a deaf village. By the way, in 1992, Krasny Yar played at home against Barbarians, losing with a score of 21-32. Enisei-STM: Australia (Richard...

Usually in March from -5С to +10С. But every few years there may be -15C and a lot of snow. But this is not the main problem. After all, they can start the first two rounds on the away. The Russian national team until middle-March is playing in the Rugby Europe Championship. KY and STM will have...

Hello from Russia! Everyone says that the EPCR has abandoned the Continental Shield. They do not want to allow clubs from Russia, Romania, Georgia, Spain, Germany to play with European top clubs in the Challenge Cup. Therefore, 99% participation of the Enisei-STM in the Challenge Cup 2019-20 (6...
