History
The website was released in 2008, November, and born thanks to the will of two friends to share their passion, both for rugby union and the web : Maxime Rouquié (rugby referee) and Nicolas Rousse (rugby union player). The goal was to create a perpetual place to share with other rugby union fans like we do after the games around the pitch. People can cross react after, before or during the games, using Facebook, or directly on the website.
The Rugbynistère is now visited by several thousands of readers each day, and is still growing[1]
