Rugby, the anti-football that might save Italy

"We rugby fans have a dream: to see the representatives of the Italian State go and watch the match on September 8th between Italy and New Zealand in Marseille, for we are utterly convinced that Italy needs rugby", exclaims the journalist Giusseppe d'Avanzo, as the Rugby World Cup is about to begin in France this September 7th. "Rugby remains a mystery for Italians. ... Often it is presented with a rhetoric that renders it unrecognisable. ... It is everything but chaos and madness. ... It requires a community spirit and reason. It excludes cunning artifice, arrogance and cynicism, for it is a loyal sport, despite, or perhaps thanks to its violence. Could one imagine anything less Italian? Each characteristic of rugby is in contrast with Italian specificity. ... This is why we like to think that this sport, so far from our national identity, can set an example for reform."
