[QUOTE="Marco Polo, post: 149805"] The difficulty with expanding the 6N is that given the scheduling issues already, with HEC rugby etc, it would be difficult to fit anymore games into the current rugby calender without seriously looking at having a global season again, 5 internationals is pretty much the limit that can played during the 6N window, so any revamp of the 6N would have to involve a two tier promoton / relegation system rather than expanding to one pool of 7N, 8N etc. This is not a excuse to do nothing of course, but it would involve the IRB having to use their imagination to come up with an innovative solution to include the up and coming nations like Romania Georgia and Portugal.
