[QUOTE="Mr.cyclopede, post: 149649"] Totally agree with you Sure that by their performance in this WR, going to the semi's at least for me (sorry for Scotland), Argentina is going to have big arguments to enter one of the two annual competitions Despite it should appear somewhere more comfortable for them to enter the 6N (players playing for most of them in European clubs, no jet lag problem if they're hosted by Belgium or Spain), I would find more logical that they play in the 3 series for both reasons: - They're geographically located in SH, and the 2 competition are clearly orientified this way (and for jet lag we can imagine them hosted by an African country for ex). - There's also a much more busy calendar for 6N, charging this one much more would accentuate the notable difference of game level we all see getting bigger beetween N&S Now question has to be asked again for integrating European countries as Georgia or Portugal. They've showed wonderfull things and improved they're game level incredibly fast despite very low budget.This progression has to be compared for exemple with Japan, that plays for much more longer in the RWC, and does not improve despite a lot of money (all professionnal) and a great media presence in their country. Now I think that France will support theses countries that are so motivated, as we fought to integrate Italia. On the other hand if 6N accept this challenge, the south ones will also have to accept new ones (Argentina, Namibia, Polynesian Island,...) to balance, just speaking about the calendar. [/QUOTE]
