Thought I'd knock up an idea for a comp at the end of 2024.
While tests series can be great I dont think they capitalise on the amount of good quality teams we have in RL at the moment. I know France will be just making up the numbers competitively but they would be much more cost effective than flying over and paying a third SH team. I've suggested ideal locations but id see which cities want to bid to host international sport first and select accordingly.
I'd be open to Frances place being taken by FIJI or PNG if people think the comp would still profit
