[QUOTE="bushytop, post: 968297, member: 56738"] It’s a tough one about whether the 6N (or indeed any non World Cup Rugby Tournament) should be geographical. I think, ultimately (like Endgame, when nations like Germany, Brazil... Korea? etc) they ‘should’ be but until that point I guess it’s fair game. Eventually I’d like three decent annual championships along the lines of [USER=40658]@TRF_heineken[/USER] suggestion. A European, a Pan-Pacific & and America’s... all with promotion and relegation play-offs. European speaks for itself: 6N & Euro Champs Pan Pac: TRC, Pacific Islands and South-East Asia America’s: Canada, USA, Argentina, Uruguay, Brazil Chile etc. Long (lllloooooooooonnnnnnnggggggg) way off like but you know what I mean. South Africa is the only sticking point really as it’s more in line with Europe than Pan Pac. I guess an African Champs would be needed too in that case but I’ve a feeling that would be even further down the road. Not an easy route to this either. [/QUOTE]
