people continually laud the virtues of japan, declarin­ it the biggest market for rugby in asia, but to me, it­ would be throwin a huge sum of money and a world class­ event down a bottomless pit. the japanese are never­ gonna be up to tri-nation standard, and they are to far­ away to be involved in the six nations, so their rugby­ will never develop.
italy on the other hand ARE capable­ of mixin it with the big boys, theyve beaten the­ scottish and welsh, and came within minutes of beatin­ the english. now the ELVs are gone, and the maul­ restored, the italians main weapon, they will now­ continue to develop. the quality of parisse (best no. 8­ in the world) the bergamasco brothers and their­ forwards (perugini etc) when combined with better back­ players, would be a formidable team.
the problem facin­ them tho, is player pool size. a world cup wud do­ wonders for interest in the sport and more likely than­ not increase the number of rugbyb players at their­ disposal.
from the bank managers point of view, the­ italian bid has 4 x 80,000 spectator stadia at its­ disposal and an infrastructure to handle that.
with­ their inclusion in the magners, italy is the place to­ go
