Oh yeah, I’m sure he’s very much in the RWC plans, otherwise why give him the contract. Just share the same doubts that another year on the tires is going to be sustainable.

I'd say both but yeah an average of 35 at the RWC gives cause for concern.

IRFU certainly could and they appoint/pay the provincial HCs. But it'd be crazy to leave your own national team when you might never get another chance at it -- what if the RWC goes really well and you want a crack at 2031?

Pity they are in RWC 2027 group E and not F 😉.
On a serious note though...why are World Rugby wasting time trying to break the US market?
Wendyball with all its money has failed.
IMO WR should be focusing on raise "tier 2" nations, lequges & coaching to make the RWC/6N/RC more competive.

Coming up to the '95 RWC England had a hoodoo over France. France had last beaten them in 1988 and England just knew how to beat them. They faced each other in the 3rd place playoff and a disinterested England aide fell to a French team that did their best to lose. It was 1999 when England next won

There is a lot of weird cross pollination in WA 3 with Texan politics/big money (a la Maddox)
That Braun and RWC share a Treasurer, who may have hired a text client to do shady anti-trans scares should be more surprising than it is. That crew has no problem repeatedly demonizing children.

The Houston Chronicle (which I believe mistakenly connected the RWC Fund with the mailer; the mailer's sender has not been identified) says the treasurer for the RWC fund and for WA state senator John Braun are the same person: Paul Kilgore.
