[QUOTE="AliC1995, post: 560170, member: 66702"] Would this competition not work better if it was split into two conferences, a Oceania and a Americas conference. For example the Oceania conference could be: Tonga Japan Fiji Samoa (Should they feel the need to rejoin) And the Americas conference could look like: Canada USA Uruguay Argentina Jaguars So each team plays three conference matches and then the fourth match could be inter-conference playoffs e.g. Conference winners playoff, runners-up etc. So everyone plays our matches each and the total travel will be reduced. Another suggestion how about if each team hosted a matchday, this would mean in the conference matches every team would have one home, one away and one neutral game. I think this format would benefit the competition as travel would be reduced, there would be more clarity as to where fixtures are held (this years tournament sees USA have one home game and Japan 3) and more team are involved. Thoughts... [/QUOTE]
