• Just found out that the puppet Vichy government of France outlawed rugby league during WW2 and redirected all funds and attention to union, changing the sport in the country forever…bruh

So the sub doesn’t allow me to mention the name of the government that puppeted Vichy france, so for those that don’t know it was those really bad German guys from the second global war. Well the Vichy government operated in south France where rugby was most popular and apparently league was associated with socialism (wtf) and the UK, so they outlawed league and redistributed all funds to union-none of this was ever returned. Not what i expected to come across while reading some casual rugby history

Edit: sorry should have stated this from the start. I came across this info on wikipedia but it had no source, so i verified it all by looking at this
