[QUOTE="Bruce_ma gooshvili, post: 1125649, member: 74121"] So it comes to pass (probably). [URL unfurl="true"]https://www.telegraph.co.uk/rugby-union/2023/03/20/revealed-world-rugbys-blueprint-new-global-tournament/[/URL] It's pretty clear there is zero commitment to any kind of promotion or relegation at any time. However, if this means the expansion of TRC to include Fiji I think promotion / relegation will become a thing as soon as a more commercially lucrative side is in position to replace Fiji. It stinks. But assuming the San Fran agreement cross Tier tests (until 2032) are condensed into the other 2 years in the RWC cycle then it is an improvement in the horrific status quo from a Tier2 perspective. If they find a way to rip up the San Fran tests then its hard to see the positives outside of Japan. [/QUOTE]
