They seem to be unable to see the obvious - the average game of union is incredibly boring.
The inclusion of Argentina into the Tri Nations is easier said than done - massive distance & time-zone differences for 1. Also getting regularly clubbed by NZ, SA & Aus will do nothing for their self esteem.
7s rugby is crap - akin to 20-20 cricket - not a real sport.
why shouldn't the home nations veto any rule changes? it's their sport after all.

""Today, rugby is popular in only a few countries, representing a tiny proportion of the world’s population and economic value""
At last some sensibility spoken that applies to both codes.
However, we still have some absolute k**bheads in the UK (Jones, Barnes et al) and around the world that are so desperate to think otherwise.
Does 'rugby' need to be global.
I certainly wouldn't be comfortable with RL being on the same scale as football over here with all its baggage.
