Sam Warburton, the former Wales rugby captain, has urged players to accept a “reset of expectation” regarding wages if the sport is to survive a financial crisis in England and Wales. The Gallagher Premiership teams Wasps, Worcester Warriors and London Irish have all gone bankrupt, while the Welsh Rugby Union has also sought to reduce player wages and will later slash playing budgets to £4.5m. Warburton stated that the sport must be made more commercially viable before players can earn salaries at previous levels, adding that the situation was neither unexpected nor unsustainable.
