[QUOTE="higgik, post: 947550, member: 74704"] True, but stupid of Sanzaar. The SA economy in in deep dodo, while there is no money for the 3rd ranked winter sport in Aus, and NZ is too small economy for all three to survive without the Japanese or American Money. I personally think having a four year Asia/Pacific Champs in the middle of a RWC cycle would be a good start. Maybe instead of an NH tour or even when the Lions are touring. How about 2 groups of 3 play home and away, 4 matches over 6 weeks, with a finals day 1v1, 2v2, etc. Group A: NZ, Fiji, Tonga Group B: Aus, Japan, Samoa Bottom team in each group relegated Div 2 follow similar format, with Top team in each group promoted. Similar format in America could also happen Would start the process of broadening international play without the whole idea of changing the RC or the 6N [/QUOTE]
