Rugby - Jeremy Guscott on the new rugby union season

 

There will be constant references to it being "X" days away, and all paths lead to Twickenham for the next 12 months. Every match this season will be viewed in that sort of context - every good bit of play and every bad bit of play will be scrutinised with the World Cup in mind.

This season promises to be even more exciting than normal because it leads into the 2015 World Cup in England.
