Extraordinary is one word to describe rugby’s August.

There’s going to impact felt in North America — and around the globe. The Canadian women won bronze. The country is jazzed.

Martin Pengelly of The Guardian and Curtis Reed from This is American Rugby join Patrick Johnston to ponder the meaning of sevens, and the future of professional rugby in North America.

Will Pro12 sniffing around make any impact? And what of the Premiership/Saracens/Toulon’s interest in the USA?
