[QUOTE="Wally, post: 323694, member: 12205"] I don't think that would work. It's just not commercially viable, even with the iRB on board. Canada and the United States need to look after their own backyard an go from there. The establishment of a professional league with teams from both countries based out of cities which have the best rugby infrastructure in place is a priority. Building from the grass roots up is the only way forward. Ok so the sport is never going to fully crack the American market but if it could be half as successful as soccer in that country it will be in a much stronger position. [/QUOTE]
