[QUOTE="Scrum Bum, post: 753420, member: 72671"] - I think time zones have to be considered - Also we have to do it incrementally. History has shown slow and steady changes have been better to competitions. Italy to the 5N for instance; Not like what they've done to Super Rugby. - The alternative is more tests between tier 1s 2s and 3s. - Rather than "milk" the top teams why not utilise the barbarians/lions sides? Sides like these could visit smaller sides and play other conglomerate teams like the Pacific Islanders, even on neutral soil. - The game needs to be more global - Island rugby needs to be given attention too. With 6N becoming bigger it is a possibilty more island players will chose 6N teams. It is no secret that the IRB is not interested in helping Island Rugby. [/QUOTE]
