England rugby has reported another racial abuse case after the Bongi Mbonambi case. Bongi Mbonambi and Tom Curry became the talk of the World Cup in France after Curry claimed Bongi had racially abused him. The subsequent World Rugby investigation was informed by Tom Curry that he had also been the victim of the same abuse, from the same player, in the Autumn Test 2022 1. The RFU fully supports Tom Curry in raising the racially abusive behavior he experienced while playing for England against South Africa 2.
The Bongi Mbonambi case has brought to light the issue of racism in rugby. It is important that all players, coaches, and fans work together to eradicate racism from the sport. The RFU has taken a strong stance against racism and will continue to do so
