I'll be interested to have a look at it, but regardless of whether it is a step forward from the last game or not, it's still not going to be as good a representation of the sport as the Madden series for a number of reasons.
There are too many options available to the player at any given time in rugby, whereas in American Football each play is scripted, and there are a limited number of options available (granted they still overlook the "lateral") which can be easily controlled.
Just look at the kicking element of rugby in open play. A long kick to the corners, an up and under, a grubber kick, a little chip over the defence .... Add this to the passing element, sidestepping/handing off etc, let alone any planned moves, and the number of options quickly gets out of hand.
Still, I'll have a look at it and see what happens.

Ugh could never get my head around crappy NFL - always been Rugby for me.
Looking forward to trying the new Rugby '06 - though coming from Twickenham i gotta love anything rugby-ish or id be shunned and egged in the street!![]()
I've tried the last two rugby series games and just found them frustrating. The only good rugby game ever was Johna Lomu Rugby for the ps1 , I used to play that so much it was silly. 2v2 matches were great when I was at uni.
Shame EA can't capture the game play bit from that game and give it an eye candy update.
