Emigration

The southern Hemisphere is working to try to stop leading players moving to Europe to play rugby.All these players are moving over to the Europe because it has the strongest base of rugby and they will get alot more games because of the locality of the teams in Europe, e.g.In southern Hemisphere professional rugby they play less games because alot of the games are between a South African team and an Australian or New Zealand team which require long flights,a hectic schedule and alot of travelling. This takes its toal on the players and many of them want to move to a less demanding schedule and in many cases more pay.The southern hemisphere national teams have started to put contracts on international players to make sure they play in the international games instead of being away playing in Europe.
