Aquí les comparto un video que grabé hace 11 años sobre los estadios para Argentina albergar el mundial (en 2023). Entre entonces y ahora, Los Pumas derrotaron a todos sus rivales. El sueño ahora es oficial: ARG será candidato para albergar RWC 2035.

Esta fue una advertencia al mundo: Teman a Los Pumas. 🇦🇷Argentina es la mayor amenaza para el rugby y podría romper con los países tradicionales y sus tradiciones en nuestro deporte. La gran esperanza de expansión del rugby tiene un nombre: Argentina.

South Africa leave Super Rugby. Within years All Blacks and Wallabies level drop considerably. Coincidence?

World League / Nations Cup starting in 2026 after winning the vote 41-10. - 🇦🇷Argentina voted no. Rest of T1 world voted yes. - Rugby fans of growth in Wales, France, etc should be angry with your admin. - Lions protected; T2 in the garbage heap
