[QUOTE="Brodizzle, post: 147906"] Nah, doubt this would work...what these teams need is increased competition, the world cup gives that. If you restrict them coming in there they will languish in mediocrity as they will never face the real proffesional competition, I mean, just because you don't like watching mismatches doesn't mean they don't like playing it, turn off your TV if you don't like it. The solution to grow rugby is to bring in a 'plate' for the minnows to fight for, that is your motivation....the direction we need to go is to increase the teams, the plate system would mean that the minnows no longer go home empty handed, and of course there should be a significant cash reward for doing so....we need to go about expanding the sport, make the Rugby World Cup the Rugby equivilent of the Football world cup....the beauty in rugby is that everyone can play it, whether it be the fat kids or the fit kids....the minnows are currently the fat kids but if you give them time they will get fitter and fitter....
