https://www.nzherald.co.nz/rugby/news/artic...jectid=12140241While the proposal is still in its early stages and has to undergo a feasibility study before being approved,
Sydney's Daily Telegraph can reveal that
the sport's leading nations have at least reached consensus on the preferred model to explore.
If the proposal is considered and is accepted,
the top 12 nations will all play each other once a year
with the top four going into a playoff system to decide an annual champion.
The premise is we need to generate more money for the international game and
the more meaningful those games are, the more likely they are to generate broadcast revenue
so we're doing an exercise in the viability of a broadcast uplift in those fixtures,"
World Rugby CEO Brett Gosper told The Daily Telegraph.
Under the preferred format, the top six teams from the northern and southern hemispheres
would have to play each other each year with results counting for the 12-team league.
The Rugby Championship and the Six Nations would both double for the league
while the crossover matches would take place in the July and November windows.
Although the details are still to be worked out,
the most likely starting date for the new competition would be 2020
and tours by the British and Irish Lions would continue.
There would also be a second tier competition, with promotion and relegation,
and the rankings used to determine the seedings for each World Cup,
adding even more incentive for teams to perform well.
"It keeps the Rugby World Cup as the pinnacle event
but you're building towards that over a three-year period," Gosper said.
"Everything is under consideration, no decisions have been made yet."
Gosper said the key for the plan to be approved was how much money it was likely to generate
but under the proposal, all the major tournaments would be bundled together,
which could provide a massive windfall.
"It's interesting from a rugby point of view
but it's also regrouping the rights of these international games at one purchase point
which in itself creates an uplift in value so all international rugby,
including World Cup, including all the November, July, Six Nations, Rugby Championship,
all grouped together." = საზარელი ფასი დაედება და ერთბაშად ვინღა იყიდის?
