RFU on a collision course with World cup players

The RFU have announced a crackdown on world cup players commercial, media and online activities during the Rugby World Cup next year.
The RFU held a meeting yesterday and club officials and a large gathering of rugby agents were informed that the governing body will be implementing a range of restrictive measures at the tournament in New Zealand.
The move could cost a player like Jonny Wilkinson hundreds of thousands of pounds in potential income.
The national squad will be banned from using Twitter, Facebook or any other social networking or messaging sites from the moment they board the plane at Heathrow in August until their return in October.
