USA-Rugby just brokered their first nationwide coverage of domestic rugby this year which should be online in 12mths, next season. This will allow local-based players to be fully-pro albeit humble money compared to those in other US-sports. Its growing as a niche sport, atleast awareness is there with Ivy League players being prevalent in NYC and D.C. This move apparently was the 1st hoop USA-rugby had to jump thru if they ever (which seems inevitable) wish to join the Super competition in future. USA-Rugby has an exciting future. @Yetirat:

It would have yielded one global game - no gridiron, league, union etc and countries like the USA and Canada would also have been powerhouses, Australia stronger and NZ and SA not as dominant.

Will be great to have them there. They just need to learn you can't win the game by having 15 bodybuilders on the park. They need to find a good balance. Number of SA, NZ and Canadian players will have a chance at the WC again. :) Hey. Will be great to have them there.
