[QUOTE="Bowerman, post: 282928"] just my two cents; I wish i could call rugby a tier 2 sport...but rugby here really isn't even on a tier. or if it is, it's behind Hockey, Football (gridiron), Baseball, Soccer, basketball, and yes - even golf. They are trying to increase it's popularity here, with the creation of the BC Bears, and the introduction of the Americas Rugby Championship, and there are even talks of building a rugby stadium to lure international matches to British Columbia, Canada. Which i think would improve rugby here greatly - with international experience and to create a larger fan base. Cause as it is now it's like professionals playing amateurs when canada plays anyone else other than america. [/QUOTE]
