[QUOTE="TRF_Cymro, post: 325072, member: 40909"] Disappointed with the 12 team format they have come up with. They could easily do 24 teams like you see at the HK 7's. I just think its a cop out to be fair but I do feel that if its successful then it will be raised to more sides in it. I do suppose they will have to look at qualifying format rather soonish after the 2012 Olympics. It would be difficult to judge how to seed some sides like the Lions if they go with IRB rankings. Also if the GB side does make it then it raises a lot of questions about the rights of the normal Lions because of rights. GB side will be white, blue and red and not just plain red. [/QUOTE]
