[QUOTE="Groundhog, post: 1042292, member: 50079"] I think the format is pretty straight forward too. Its a straight up league table, top 8 make the knockouts with no terrible conference like this year. As fair and straight forward as it can be while still protecting the tournaments marquee games; the derbies (esp the Irish ones lets be real). European qualification is a slightly different story, with the top team in each pool (1 Irish, 1 Welsh, 1 SA, 1 Scottish/Italian) qualifying as well as the next four teams in the overall table. Problematic in a sense that a team in the top 8 could be screwed out of qualification though. On the name, I liked Rainbow Cup well enough. URC is kinda like a non licensed Rugby Challenge tournament, but its..... fine. [/QUOTE]
