[QUOTE="profitius, post: 829614, member: 41524"] Theres not much between the USA and Georgia at the moment in terms of on pitch ability but in terms of setting up a franchise, the USA has far more resources. So why would it be easier to set up a team in Georgia? By "English speaking" I ment culturally the US is closer to us than Georgians are. Georgia has a backer but there are literally millions of millionaires in the US. They have load sport broadcasters that have plenty of cash as well as the business sector that could sponsor a team. The one thing I'd agree with is there would be bigger crowds in Georgia, starting off at least. I'm just puzzled why people say the Pro12 should be looking towards Georgia and not the USA / Canada.
