[QUOTE="Oliver Madden, post: 918276, member: 77963"] I think one of the main problems with the rugby championship is the schedule. its boring. my schedule would be: R1 - Arg v NZ, Aus v SA R2 - NZ v Aus, SA v Arg R3 - SA v NZ, Arg v Aus R4 - NZ v SA, Aus v Arg R5 - NZ v Arg, SA v Aus R6 - Aus v NZ, Arg v SA I know this would be tough on Argentina starting at home to NZ but I think that would be their best chance of running NZ close. that schedule doesn't seem as unfavourable to Argentina and South Africa as the current one. I don't mind the double-header format but I think it should be in rounds 3 and 4 and not 1 and 2. I think this schedule would give the Boks in particular a better chance of challenging the All Blacks more. going back to whether the RC or 6N is better, personally, as a follower of NH rugby I love the passion, intensity and history of the 6 nations. However I would say that some of the quality of rugby in the RC is far beyond what the 6 nations can offer. the two NZ v SA games this year are prime examples. some of this is down to the weather in the NH but more of it In my view is down to the superior skillset of the Southern Hemisphere teams.
