I've been posting for some years about the talk which mainly exists in the UK of merging league and union. It hardly gets a mention in Oz. But in the UK both league and Union are financially struggling. And participation wise are insignificant In Australia Union is financially struggling and player wise insignificant. League financially fine, but if you take the growth of girls playing the game out of the picture, the male participation of the game is in decline.
On a world stage league is a very isolated little pimple.
If Rugby 360 takes off and successfully puts the best in union and league on a Global stage and market.
The talk of merging the two to keep both alive might grow in Oz out of necessity.
