[QUOTE="RoyalBlueStuey, post: 148573"] [url="http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/rugby_union/7015321.stm"]http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/rugby_union/7015321.stm[/url] [i] "[SIZE=2]An investigation for the Sport Wales TV show has learnt of plans to cut the tournament to 16 teams, with a second level tournament for so-called minnows.[/SIZE][/i]" The form of the smaller nations and the support they've recieved has been the best thing about this tournament so far.
