Well, I didn't see another thread so I'm going for it.
Unions answer to League's World Club Challenge has got the backing from the NZRFU. Even I, a rugby league lightweight who didn;t even bother watching last weekend's world cup final, always make a point of catching the world club challenge. Have done since St Helens beat a Queensland Cowboys team with the likes of Wendel Sailor in his element (Sailor never really cut it in union)
So yeah, I'm a fan of the concept. I think the northern hem sides will be more competative because they play as a team week in week out. northern hem test sides always play alot like individuals for the first few test matches, one of the strengths of say, the All Blacks is how seamlessly they go from club to country. so bring on the match, I think Toulon may shock a few people.
