Best Answer

An A grade or International Rugby match is designated to consist of 2 40 minute halves.

However the referee is the sole judge of time. If he starts and stops his watch slightly differently to the field it can run a little longer. the time is also only up when there is a stoppage of play. so if the attacking team has possession time will be up once they either kick it out or cause and infringement

There are 40 minutes per half in rugby. However, the rule is the half does not finsih until the ball goes out of play or a stoppage occurs which means a game can have more than 40 minutes in the half.

Usually 15 mins but it can be extended at the refs discretion for unusual circumstances such as pitch invasion/injury or other special circumstances.. However I believe both captains must agree if it goes on too long!
