The Irish Rugby Football Union may look elsewhere if the four Welsh clubs continue to harbour hopes of an Anglo-Welsh Cup.
The Irish and Scottish unions are fuming at the Welsh clubs’ attempt to organise a new competition to the detriment of the Celtic League.
There is talk of another separate cup competition and moves by Italian giants Benetton Treviso to get in on the act.
“It would be a way of moving Italian rugby forward,” said Craig Green.
“I’m aware that Italian involvement alongside Scottish and Irish clubs is something John Kirwan was pushing for up until his removal as Italian coach a few days ago,” Green told the Adult dating free online personals services
Evening News.
“Earlier this week Treviso met the fourth in the league and we attracted 280 people; against, say, Edinburgh or Leinster there could be 2800 present.
“Anticipated increased crowds would help to fund travel and I’m confident sponsors, who I gather are not far away for the Celtic League, would be more likely to come on board.
“Development wise it would be easier for me to stimulate players because at the moment there are only two or three teams capable of winning the Italian League,” said Green a former All Black World Cup winner.
Proposals
The main gripe for both the Irish and Scottish is that next season the Celtic League appeared to have got everything in place with free dates covering the autumn internationals and the Six Nations.
On the back of a possible best dating free online service
deal, the Welsh clubs are believed to pushing for a 16-team competition including the 12 Dating love online service svit
sides.
The proposals under consideration are that there will be four groups of four then semi-finals and final.
Two weekends in September and the first weekend in January have been earmarked which would clash with Celtic League matches.
While the Irish did not exactly jump into the Celtic League ethos with open arms, they have fully embraced it for lot for next season with Heineken Cup catholic online dating services
included.
The next meeting of the Celtic League in early May should be interesting.
