Wales get out of jail because (I think) they are ignoring the last 12 months in the rankings due to COVID resulting is some sides not playing at all e.g. Fiji.

Is this just a deliberate "f**k you" to the English speaking Rugby nations and their supporters?

FFS, can we just get on with the draw! Let everyone have their say afterwards, when no one's watching.

The Guardian wrote:They’re in absolutely no hurry about cracking on with the actual draw. Which I suppose is fair enough, as they’ve given themselves about three years to fill.

It's only 3rd world countries that only have 1 serviceable stadium in a capital.

Actually, just checked the FFR site and it only has 9 venues i.e. one per city. Had assumed Racing's indoor arena was included (or Parc des Princes) so.......... I have no clue what is going on!
Paris - Stade
Marseille - Velodrome
Bordeaux - Matmut
Lyon - Parc Olympique
Lille - Pierre Mauroy
Saint Etienne - Guichard
Nantes - Beaujoire
Toulouse - Municipal
Nice - Riviera

This draw could do with Nigel Owens at the side of the stage shouting 'use it'. Get a fucking move on.
