Its an older article but I think it does a good job of discussing the topic I wish to discuss. Do you think the World Rugby should expand the number of countries? From what I read this wouldn't take affect until the 2031 Rugby World Cup being hosted in the United States. The first ever tournament to be held in the Americas. What are your thoughts?

I just don't think it works from a player management perspective. There are teams that limp through to the later stages riddled with injuries.

That’s a good point, I wonder if they extended the matches but that could cause disruption to the host country. It’s tough call and I’m glad I’m not the one who has to make that decision.
