IRB chief suggests Six Nations games in the USA

Written By Unknown on Minggu, 02 November 2014 | 23.06

The IRB Chief Executive has raised the prospect of some Six Nations games being played in the United States to help the development of rugby in the US.

Brett Gosper said he would welcome Six Nations action being staged in America, following the sell-out Chicago clash between New Zealand and the USA.

The All Blacks dispatched the USA 74-6 at Chicago's Soldier Field on Saturday, New Zealand stopping off en route to their northern hemisphere tour.

The Kiwis took on the Eagles in America for the first time since 1980, underlining rugby's growth in the US, leading IRB boss Gosper to call for Six Nations chiefs to consider staging a match stateside.

"I know Premiership Rugby are talking about bringing some big club games to the States and why not some internationals like the Six Nations?" Gosper told the Daily Telegraph.

"If that fits in with the Six Nations' vision of their tournament that would be certainly interesting from a developmental point of view in the United States.

"It is up to the Six Nations as to where they want to play their games but again I think that would be a terrific thing for the game."
