[QUOTE="munstermuffin, post: 696560, member: 39240"] And there is water seperating Ireland (which is an island) from UK and France. What's your point? They're still all SANZAR yes. If people are petty and say this bid is UK then that's wrong. Rugby in Ireland comes above politics. Theres no north or south just Ireland. Belfast is a lovely city that doesn't get to host many major events and deserves to get a share. As does Ireland as a whole. And I think I'd have to disagree with your views as in the earlier days up to 2003 RWC the game wasn't grown enough. But guess i's like North vs South as the OLD BOYS Club down under do same and do the extra payments to likes of Fiji Samoa and etc although that could be for players too. And obviously your unaware but for people to travel to the UK from Ireland can be costly so again I don't know where your €50 deal goes from. Again this deal has nothing to do with England, Scotland, Wales or France. Ireland are bidding and the 2 semi finals and Final are ear marked for Croker. Belfast, Limerick, Aviva and Croker ear marked for QF's. [COLOR="silver"][SIZE=1]- - - Updated - - -[/SIZE][/COLOR] Can I ask why SA should host it TWICE before Ireland even get it once if they're capable? People mention the Italy's or Argentina's but do they have what it takes to host it? Let's first see their bid and what they put together. [/QUOTE]
