[QUOTE="Prestwick, post: 111254"] To be honest though, the French didn't have to give it to Edinburgh and Cardiff. They do have more than enough stadia in France to hold the games. The only reason why they are holding the games in Cardiff and Edinburgh is to ensure the support of the WRU and the SRU in voting for France to hold the 2007 WRC. Most Rugby World Cup destinations are decided by seedy insider dealing between unions. Hence why New Zealand stole the 2011 RWC from Japan. [/QUOTE]
