PREFACE.

the Rugby Union and the development of the various styles of play, have confined our hints to players to the requirements of the game as it is now played.

In the later chapters we have something to say on professionalism, on refereeing, and on the reforms which have been already effected, as well as those which are still needed; the laws themselves we have placed in an Appendix at the end of the book.
