    England's Rugby Football Union has unveiled a $14 million covid-19 support and planning package for community clubs


    The package includes an early release of $1.6 million cash due to clubs through ticketing, the suspension of quarterly loan repayments for those with loans due next month and the creation of a support loan programme.

    Chief executive Bill Sweeney also revealed an estimated revenue loss for the RFU over the next 18 months of approximately $100 million.

    He'll also take a 25 per cent pay cut while board fees have been reduced by 75 per cent.
