    not sure what it is to achieve

    A ‘World League’ has been mooted for some time seeking to extract more revenue from the international windows

    There’s your answer, I think. As always, making more money is the primary motive.

      International Rugby is swiftly becoming the most boring form of Rugby to watch (or already is). Way too defense oriented, revolves around the collision which ends up needing to be policed by the referee so more often than not rather than playing rugby to get territory teams milk stupid penalties from whatever the breakdown interpretation of the day is then lineout maul for a try in the corner where the attacking team can do whatever they want because unlike the breakdown anything goes in the maul, so long as its not anything the defending team do because its always their fault..
