Quote: Wire Yed "You can have it at Cardiff in the winter or is the MEN Areana capable of accommodating a full pitch and fans?
To have it as a 2 day stand alone tournament in which clubs play their best players you need financial incentives otherwise they'll use it as an excuse to rest players mid season/closed season.
Having an invite to NZ for the top two winners could be an incentive if taken seriously enough but money talks.
In this country the only way to attract real interest and big money is mixing it up with the Union lads, have half League teams and half union teams now that would atttract real interest.'"
Is that the message you got from the largely sold out World Cup which had exactly zero input from RU.
