WHEN THEY PLAY A MAJOR ROLE IN THE DEVELOPMENT OF RUGBY IN OUR PART OF THE WORLD. To start off with, Fiji is the reigning Sevens Champ in the World, the three teams plays a major role in the development of rugby in tier one rugby nations eg. NZ, Aust., France, England, Wales, Scotland and so forth. Take away the three playing nations from the IRB and rugby would not be enterprising any more.

Their membership in the IRB Council mean they will have more say in how the rules are made. Their lack of financial resources mean that their most talented players are picked up by the richer Tier 1 nations. These players are never allowed ever again to play for their mother country. Being members of the council means these nations will have more say in the adoption or otherwise of these unfair rules. AT the moment, it is like birds awaiting crumbs from the table of the current council member countries. The allocation of funds must also be fairer, and the three nations will have more say in it. At the moment, the rules are made for the Tier 1 nations, with the lesser nations getting the dregs of the money.
