This ties in with a conversation on the Nice fred but the SRU are clearly trying to fill the gap between prem 1 standard and Pro12 standard.
This was not on the agenda I saw for the AGM but I can't see prem 1 clubs being happy at all. I think it's a great idea.

That's great news if they can do it right. Has needed to happen for some time.

This is only happening now because I just joined Hawks on a season ticket for the first time.

Looks like this is edging closer to happening. I particularly like the move to link them up with universities. There's a lot wrong with the US sporting model but it certainly draws a crowd.

Do we know who the seven interested teams are?
