Rugby's rebel R360 league delayed until 2028 to 'strengthen credibility' after union's show of strength
"The launch of rugby's rebel R360 has been delayed until 2028 at the earliest after organisers admitted defeat in the first round of their battle to get the competition off the ground next year. In a statement issued this morning, Mike Tindall and his group admitted that there is a credibility problem for R360 which has dominated discussions behind the scenes at executive level all year."

R360's planned launch has been postponed until 2028 at the earliest after organisers conceded defeat in initial efforts to start the competition next year. Mike Tindall and his group acknowledged the setback in a statement issued this morning. Organisers cited a credibility problem for R360 as the main obstacle to progressing with the launch. Credibility issues have dominated executive-level discussions behind the scenes throughout the year. The delay effectively removes next year from the rollout timeline and leaves future prospects contingent on restoring credibility and resolving governance or reputational concerns.
