Editorial policy

Honest Rugby Review aims to explain rugby accurately and clearly. We distinguish description from opinion, check factual claims before publication and make changes when an explanation is wrong or incomplete.

Accuracy and clarity

We take care with laws, terminology and descriptions of play, and seek to make each explanation understandable without specialist knowledge. When a topic is complex, we narrow the scope rather than present a simplified account as complete. Our material is educational and is not a substitute for checking the current laws or competition arrangements when those details matter.

Independence

Editorial choices are made for their relevance to readers and the publication’s subject. A commercial relationship does not determine an editorial conclusion, and we do not imply that an explanation endorses a product or organization.

Corrections

If you spot a factual error, unclear wording or missing qualification, contact us with the page title and the detail in question. We review correction requests and update material when warranted, making significant changes clear to readers where appropriate.

Partner material and illustrations

Sponsored or partner material is identified clearly so readers can distinguish it from independent editorial content. Some illustrations may be generated with AI; where this applies, the illustration is labelled, and it is not presented as documentary evidence of a match.
