NSW Rugby Union considers alcohol rule changes

The New South Wales Rugby Union (NSWRU) is mulling over the possibility of making changes in alcohol rules and security at club games. This came out following the police investigation that took place last weekend during the semifinal match between Gordon and Warringah. Players and spectators were said to be involved in the brawl. The authorities confirmed that the investigation had already begun but no charges have been filed yet to the suspects. NSWRU Chief Executive Jim L’Estrange said that the union is considering this action. However, he stressed that it is still too early to make decisions when it comes to tightening the alcohol consumption during games. Last Saturday, Gordon prevailed over Warringah with the score of 27-10. The incident was said to have been captured live on video. The officials said that they will look into the videos and photographs to determine the perpetrators and to also think through the proposed amendments of the alcohol rules.
