Organisers should take the World Cup to the United States at 2027 should theyreally want to grow the game, states USA head coach Gary Gold.
The USA face Tonga within their Pool C match on Sunday, after defeats by France, England and Argentina.
He says Japan, on the brink of reaching the quarter-finals for the very first time, will be the perfect illustration of why nations that are tier-two should host the championship.
For us, Japan are still an incredible role model for numerous reasons, said Gold.
Australia, argentina and Russia have bid to host the tournament in eight years time, together with the USA expected to combine them.
Gold, who has worked in Japan, states being awarded the World Cup gave the stage to relish their best tournament in 2015, if they won three matches, including a shock win over South Africa to the Brave Blossoms.
They have climbed to an position of eighth on the planet.
This is the reason why I feel very strongly that if World Rugby really do need to grow the sport, as they claim they want to, then USA need to be a competition for the 2027 Rugby World Cup, added the South African.
Four decades after, for them to now be quarter-final contenders is a fairytale come true.
Its something that could be done, but it was largely off the rear of these having been awarded a Rugby World Cup.
