[QUOTE="jawmalawm24, post: 456061, member: 18344"] It'll be cool to see an PI tournament but whether the teams will be able to field their best players is probably one of the most concerning issues. Argentina are going to join the Tri Nations which I think can only improve the competition only if they can field a good team. If the PI teams can get more games against the tier1 nations it would be good even if they do get smoked by 50+ points, they'll gain good experience and will know how much they need to improve if they want to be more competitive. Unfortunately ITM Cup and Super Rugby games locally aren't getting quite the crowds they use to, it's hard to put a hand on what it could be. I mostly don't got because it cost too much for tickets you're looking at $50 Super Rugby each for good seats and usually you'd go with 2 or 3 other people and than theres food and petrol is damn expensive so for a night out at the Rugby I'm thinking about $200+ when we could just stay at home and watch it on skytv. It would be good to have a PI tournament but affordability becomes big factor whether people will come or not too :( [/QUOTE]
