Question

http://uk.eurosport.yahoo.com/27022008/4/irb-explore-champions-clash.html

Answer 1

Tri Nations Winner, the NZ & SA dominate rugby the Northern Hemisphere teams  just aren't that good

Answer 2

ahaha that would be awesome to watch, esp since here in nz we always choke and loose the world cup hahah give us a chance to prove were the best!

Answer 3

Sounds like a great idea, unfortunately being Scottish I don't think our mob has much chance of winning a game never mind playing against the Tri Nations champs. Ah well there's always  next year eh.

Answer 4

No we'd loose.

The Southern Hemisphere only really choak at the world cup, so they'd tonk us in this game and moan even more about not winning the world cup.

Answer 5

Already happens.

Teams do a truck load of touring.

Have a look at the data from years past, it's already happening.

NZ will tour the home nations in November,  all in a month of rugby - beat us if you can because there is a pretty good chance we won't give the TN or BC away this year..

Answer 6

Wales against a southern hemipshere side? uh oh we're not that good. Gatlan or not.

Answer 7

Would be an excellent idea. It could be played over three tests possibly, like the British Lions series. When and where would be a problem though! If it meant watching some quality rugby, it's got to be good!

Answer 8

This tournament will undermine the RWC and that's carried out every four years. Although the proposed tournament will reflect who the real champ is because they will have to defend the sheild every year while the RWC only reflects a winner on the day every four years and quite frankly that winner may not be the best team all round. I can give examples of this but it's best not poke the fire while it's cool .

Answer 9

seems like a no-brainer.  great idea.  the world needs more rugby.  just one game though?  and where?

Answer 10

it would be good.

Another excuse for a rugby week end away.

Answer 11

great idea mate, tell someone who could set it in motion!

Answer 12

I like the idea myself, as well as the global tournament in between the World cup............it's the venue that is worrying me, I don't think Hong Kong is apt myself.........how the feck they are hosting the Olympics is a bl00dy mystery!

I would imagine the champs v champs game would replace the Autumn internationals, and do we want that????
