[QUOTE="snoopy snoopy dog dog, post: 611052, member: 13611"] I completely understand why the Welsh regions wish to join the Premiership. I'm not so sure how the English clubs benefit. Without wishing to be harsh, the regions aren't big draws and their market size is pretty small. The only way I can see the regions joining the Premiership is if they drag the Scottish districts and Irish provinces with them too in a B&I League while at the same time the Italian superclubs join the French system. The IRB won't allow one nation improve if it does untold damage to three others. [/QUOTE]
