Message: [QUOTE="Foordy, post: 3458808, member: 1769"] there are calls for both Samoa and Tonga to be elevated to tier one status after the world cup. the ARL commission reportedly does not have a huge appetite to change the origin eligibility rules. the report says their hands may be forced if the IRL upgrades any of the Pacific Island teams to tier one status. Working in the ARLC's favour is that Vlandys and Abdo are on the IRL board. The criteria for being labelled a tier one nation is not based solely on a national team’s performance. Each nation’s junior development, pathways and local competitions are key elements. [/QUOTE]
