By Chris Jones BBC rugby union correspondent RugbyX will see the introduction of rugby’s version of the’Super Over’, with drawn matches decided with a revolutionary one-on-one competition. In case of a draw, a attacker score past one defender in another and from 1 team will try. The’one-on-one’ has been included as a member of the laws of RugbyX, which have been verified by World Rugby. Rugby version launches at the 02 Arena on 29. Ireland, england and the Barbarians are among the groups involved in the debut tournament, which involves both men and women’s teams. Dubbed’Rugby’s Twenty20′,” RugbyX is a five-a-side version of the sport, is full contact and played on a pitch that is half-sized. Halves will be 10 minutes every day, without a break in between. Kicking is allowed, but kicks must not exceed 10 metres in elevation, with the distance tracked by ball tracking technologies. One of the additional supported laws: “The RugbyX laws are developed with the objective of supporting simple, rapid and skilful gameplay using nominal stoppages, whilst retaining the core principles of the game we love,” said RugbyX Technical Director Ben Ryan. Former England winger Ugo Monye, a part of the Rugby Union Weekly podcast, considers that the’one on one’ is a innovative and stunning means of deciding a game. The participant will begin 30 metres from the line, although the shield begins 5 metres outside . “As a guardian it is a nightmare, but as an attacker that the pressure is on you to score,” he said. “I’d love to see somebody such as [Springbok wing] Cheslin Kolbe doing it. “For me, RugbyX is a simplified and condensed version which cherry-picks the best bits of what rugby is.” The way we look for love has altered?
