[QUOTE="Leonormous Boozer, post: 920549, member: 45598"] I'm not endorsing the status quo by any means. I just think Georgia and the six nations is an idea that unfortunately should be forgotten about, they're just not compatible as they don't add to the cash cow. As for rugby and its values I tend to think they extend to two clubs/international sides treating each other well after they play no matter the level but beyond the pitch its a business from top to bottom. Obviously I have the luxury of having this point of view and not caring too much because I'm from a tier 1 nation with a powerful union and I only care so much about the game's growth (I accept this is a pretty poor attitude. However, I definitely think that to convince the top dogs to try to expand the game you're going to need a lot more than asking about rugby's ethos. Tomorrows game will get people talking as much as they do after Italy have a terrible 6N or lose to another tier 2 nation but the chat will result in nothing. Its just another test match, possibly a very well balanced one. [/QUOTE]
