Brian Burke sits on the Board of Directors for Rugby Canada.

The Wolfpack is an avenue for local (Prairie Province) players to play for Canada (both 15's & 7's which is an Olympic event). There are current a fair number of Nation Team players on the Wolfpack, including a local boy Nick Blevins.

While this will no doubt have a rugby focus, Brian is a good speaker and I suspect there will be a Q & A.

Also, the monies goes to support amatuer sport.

Look forward to more Burke-isms. Stuff like "Gio has been great but his passing is weak"

If i was back home, and not a struggling student, i would definitely go to this. The Wolf Pack is a great organization, and this appeals to me on both the basis of hockey and rugby

The involvement of Ryan Smith seemed to change the organization's approach.

It has been great to see the evolution of it from the Mavericks to now.

Can't wait to hear the notes from a poster who attended, then watch CP melt down as everyone whines and complains about something he said.
