Rugby Union - Nations Championship (1 Viewer)

North hemisphere v South hemisphere every two years, culminating in a finals weekend. I'm guessing this will replace the Autumn internationals.

Next July, the Northern Hemisphere group of teams will travel to play three rounds of fixtures, with every team playing a different rival from the opposing Hemisphere group. In November next year, the Southern Hemisphere group will then travel north of the equator for the remaining three rounds.

The Finals Weekend will deliver wall-to-wall elite sporting entertainment to fans, with three days of double headers taking centre stage at Allianz Stadium.

Great idea and its good to have a formalised fixtures pitting the best Northern Southern Hemisphere on a regular basis. On a football related note, this is something FIFA needs to consider for its international calendar. Brazil v Tunisia in France is just not something neutral supporters care for.

Regular fixtures against the best teams, best rivalries is better for any sport.
