[QUOTE="TRF_heineken, post: 882709, member: 40658"] I don't see the point of the USA being pushed into a tournament ahead of other nations of equal stature that are geographically closer and more allied and aligned with the leagues??? The USA play the Americas Cup against Canada, Uruguay and Argentina, so they are already competing in a tournament internationally. The USA won't join SANZAAR, because: 1. USA is not a Southern Hemisphere Country 2. Has no direct ties with any of the SANZAAR nations in regards to financial support/agreements/coaching clinincs etc. 3. SANZAAR won't be expanding the relatively new Rugby Championship. The USA won't join the 6 Nations because: 1. There is already 6 Nations participating 2. Georgia, Romania, Germany, Spain are geographically closer and part of the european contingent. [/QUOTE]
