Pacific Champions Cup Idea: -Top 8 Super Rugby teams -Top 8 Japan League One teams -Top 4 MLR Teams (Semi-finalists) -2 Super Rugby teams, 2 Japan League One teams and 1 MLR team in each pool. -Then World Cup format. -Only one Champion per pool (champion of each domestic league and the previous competition champion - if the competition champion is a domestic champion, it goes to competition runner up, if that is also a domestic champion it goes to 2nd in the champions domestic league) Whilst the MLR teams may struggle, this could be a brilliant opportunity to assess the development of MLR and the money generated from this league could be monumental for improving USA rugby. And in this example draw, it would not be impossible for New England Free Jacks to win games though still not easy. Example drawn from spinning wheel using 2023 results that could've been this season: Pool A: Spears Tokyo Bay Blues Chiefs Saitama Wild Knights San Diego Legion Pool B: Crusaders Hurricanes Toyota Verblitz Tokyo Sungoliath Old Glory DC Pool C: Brumbies Reds Shizuoka Blue Revs Yokohama Eagles Seattle Seawolves Pool D: New England Free Jacks Drua Waratahs Black Rams Tokyo Brave Lupus Tokyo
