So Wallabies get here in 7 days, but they have to then stay here for entire RC, SA and Arg too. Really the only way it can work with no bubble - might be a cut down version like last year but here rather than in oz
That looks likely

This is the NZR media release:
-
I don't want North v South or ABs in the NPC.
As someone from the non Franchise provinces the NPC is interesting because it's competitive, an influx in AB's will make it uncompetitive.
Personally, I don't get excited by North v South.
In saying all that I'll take both options over no rugby at all.

Looking too be a money making test in Washington on the way up north, covid permitting, Vs USA
FedEx Field, in Maryland, the home of the Washington Football team (formerly known as the Redskins) could be ideal. 82,000 stadium, less than 10km from the National Mall.
Nationals Park is the wrong shape for Rugby, RFK is about to be demolished and the Georgetown stadium would too small.

That only works if the whole of the Rugby Championship shifts to Perth. Is NZ about to lose hosting the Tests against SA and Argentina?

SA won't come as they won't have had 500 minutes by then (4x80)
But maybe our stricter training whilst in quarantine requirements have meant that ozzie is preferred

There would be a 3-week gap between Bled 3 and the first RC test against Arg. That is assuming that Arg plays in SA before then.
That’s enough time for the ABs to quarantine for the 2 weeks after Perth.
NZ could still host the Argies and SA. -

NZ could still host the Argies and SA.So we'd only play them once, I guess. While Oz kicks their heels for a fortnight, then they fly to Oz?
