The rugby season has given us a moment of freshness in a sometimes brutal world.

This is a feeling shared by fans and non-fans alike.

Rugby is a sport that can be appreciated for its beauty and its ability to make people smile.

Players like Matthieu Jalibert show us that rugby is a sport of gentlemen, despite the barbarians that surround it.

The rugby season is a moment of pause in life, a moment to relax and have fun.
