Rugby's T2 Nations Are Struggling - Is The Sport Being Held Back?
Description
The 24 teams for the Rugby World Cup in 2027 are locked in. In this podcast we deep dive the T2 nations who will play at the World Cup, how they got there and what comes next.
We Also react to the news of the nations championship being created by world rugby and rebate the pros and cons of the 24 team World Cup.
I was joined by journalist Joe Santamaria to discuss the state of T2 rugby. We looked at Samoa's FQT win that secured their spot at the World Cup, felt sorry for Belgium, went off on tangents about South American rugby and debated Georgia's continued exclusion from the T1 table.
