I agree Psychic it's frankly a total mess following the November gong show I would have thought the IRB would take it's pants off it's head.....and yes the PNC is the reason the 2nd test with Ireland was cancelled because flying from Toronto to Japan and back to Vancouver and playing three games in a week was listed as unfeasible. I really think the PNC should have just been put off a year...Canada and Ireland could have played two tests and the RWCQ's could have all been played in June as well. With the States playing Ireland and possibly Georgia or someone as well.

I have a feeling we are going to get a hiding in Japan, with a jet lagged or low quality side being thrown out to the wolves, since I'm sure the Irish game will be a scalp target.

I hope your side knock off every team not named USA Little Guy, good luck! Rugby Canada plays every PNC nation before the USA Eagles get to them so you can go ahead and beat 'em up a little to make the quick turnarounds easier to live with.
