Abuse, lawsuits and media bans - what's happening with schoolboy rugby?

The Front Page - A podcast by NZ Herald

Abuse from the sidelines. Media blackouts. Legal battles to keep players on the bench.  This is the level of drama you’d expect from sports on an international level, but these are all headlines that have involved rugby at the high school level in New Zealand over the last year.   So how is it that schoolboy rugby has become so controversial?  NZ Herald editor at large Shayne Currie joins Damien on The Front Page to try and explain what is happening.  Follow The Front Page on iHeartRadio, Apple Podcasts, Spotify or wherever you get your podcasts. You can read more about this and other stories in the New Zealand Herald, online at nzherald.co.nz, or tune in to news bulletins across the NZME network.
