LONDON - World Rugby chairman Bill Beaumont has called a meeting to discuss the future of the game at international level following widespread criticism of the governing body’s proposals for a world league.
Leading figures from all of rugby’s ‘tier-one’ countries, along with Fiji, Japan and player representatives, will meet at the end of the month with Beaumont insisting that no decisions have yet been taken about the league. “Contrary to reports, no decisions have been made. This is an ongoing and complex process with multiple stakeholders, some with differing views.
Pacific Island players are considering a motion to boycott this year’s World Cup in Japan after media reports suggesting a proposed shake-up of the international game could exclude minor nations.
