[QUOTE="Which Tyler, post: 967642, member: 73592"] I thought the world league thing was rejected admit A] Dispanded the 6N and B] was part and parcel of a global season? I must admit, that discussion was a while ago now, and the details have become fuzzy for me. The Pacific Nations Cup already exists - so is unlikely to be more problematic than it already is. As for motivation to change. Japan have just qualified for the QFs for the first time. They've become the first non-6N/QN team to top a RWC pool. They beat 2 tier 1 teams in quick succession to do so. Japan are hosting a very successful RWC (contingency horlicks aside). Their case is strong enough that AN answer has to be found, the question is what that answer looks like. [/QUOTE]
