Irish are a possibility. Sarries?
Good thought Heathen!
Irish will almost certainly be asked to be the "home team".
I think the last game featured Falcons as the home team and Sarries. Of all the teams to choose to try and promote the fast running game of rugby.. kick and chase Sarries.
I think Glos would be a good advert for the game.
Generally the matches have taken place in the eastern time zone so that the UK TV audience can watch the game later in evening live but I believe the best USA club teams and higher participation is on the west coast.
Whoever organises it needs to work alongside with their new fledging pro league and a club to try promote the one off game a lot better.
Before last season's game BT sport interviewed a lot of people and it seemed half were simply ex-pats. Interviewing the general public the day before elsewhere in the city (was it Philly?) most people didn't know what rugby was let alone there was a special one off game taking place.
To make matters worse the organisers then used cameramen and a director that obviously had very little knowledge of the game itself and therefore all the wide angle and close up shots were all over the place.
