That's great news. Outside of player development for our guys the A program open s opportunity for further engagement of T2 nations. Looking at this PNC (Pacific Nations Cup) I'd love to see it expanded to include NZ A/Maori, the US, Canada and Chile to build out the July window and something similar done with the REC nations in November.

this would be great if they could go from the PNC (Pacific Nations Cup) in the winter which helps the PI nations into a tournament in North America with Australia A, NZ Maori, USA, Canada and either Argentina A/Uruaguay/Chile etc.
Host in Vancouver, LA, Dallas, Chicago, New York, Toronto (rotating annually).
all relatively straight forward flights.

Canada and the USA need assistance again unfortunately it seems and this would be a big benefit.

After seeing the Fijian team the fellas better warm the shoulders up and get the Kava ready.
I'd love to see the US & Canada involved (Canada has missed the WC for the first time). The MLR concluded around the same time as Super Rugby. Countries like Brazil, Uruguay, Chile should be included also.

So thinking about it if WR (World Rugby) funding PNC (Pacific Nations Cup) might be why no nz team as they have NPC and with no nrc WR (World Rugby) putting Australia A team in.
If RA funding overseas tour for Australia A I wonder with what as not exactly expect to get much ticket sales revenue from likely teams playing. Supportive of concept but how RA funds it or gets revenue from it is my question.
nothing yet.

There used to be a annual competition held in the US involving the English Saxons. The Churchill Cup. In lieu of a formal structure I would like to see more commitments from T1 Unions to run A teams against T2 Unions.
