Aus has the same levels of competition with other contact sporting codes but two world cups say they are coping without any real grass roots structures. They also struggle to put bums on seats. Crossing over from football to rugby is quite a stretch, though. I like the idea of a Lions as a quick fix attempt but it would depend on the exposure and would the sure slaughter be motivation to invest in the sport? I don't know Americans well enough. [/QUOTE]
