Could a cross-code Rugby merger save both Union & League?

Could a cross-code Rugby merger save both Union & League?

By Global

Today on The Sports Agents, we’re delving into a little fantasy... to reunite Rugby League and Union - after more than a century apart - Is it time to bring rugby’s wall down? 

Unthinkable, maybe, but if you remove sentiment and tribalism from the equation, is there really enough space for both codes to survive?

Warrington Wolves head coach Sam Burgess and the Daily Mail's Chris Foy join in to explore how would a merger actually work and is there a world in which the codes are stronger, together?

Plus, following an historic night at Villa Park in their return to the Champions League, Gabby & Mark discuss Jhon Duran's rise as one of the 'stories of the season so far'.
