[QUOTE="RedruthRFC, post: 996807, member: 58362"] No it's not. That is one of World Rugby's jobs. The point that I was trying to make was that this goal shouldn't be allowed to ride roughshod over every other aim / object in an ill conceived, ham fisted attempt at world domination. Where has the notion that it needs to be in a tier two country come from? If you're looking to host it in a European country that never wins anything, why not Italy? The feasibility of either would depend on gaining access to football stadia and would only "make sense" if access could be negotiated for a price in line with countries with their own stadia. I'd have thought that internal travel would be easier in Italy too. My worry for either would be attendances of matches not involving a tier one nation. [/QUOTE]
