Plans are reportedly in motion to install a Super Rugby franchise in Fiji in an attempt to stem the flood of players from the Pacific Islands to the riches on offer overseas.The new team is set to receive the backing of a host of global companies and kit manufacturers, and would be based in a new 20,000-seat stadium, according to the Daily Telegraph.The plan is yet to be endorsed by Super Rugby but Ben Ryan, the Briton who led Fiji to sevens gold at the Rio Olympics, is leading the charge to establish the team by 2018.I believe the impact of this plan would see Fiji win the World Cup one day, Ryan said. We have shown in sevens what we can do. And if you just look at the impact the Fiji players are having on the tier one countries, they are their star players in New Zealand, Australia, England and France.That generation has gone but the future players are there and we have to make sure they stay on the island and they get the right -resource, the right coaching and the fundamentals around it, like we did with the sevens, so there is no reason why we cant dominate.The Pacific Islands of Fiji, Tonga and Samoa have long seen homegrown talent leave their shores since rugby turned professional in 1995, with players taking lucrative contracts in Super Rugby and European competitions.World Rugbys residency rule, which allows those without an international cap to play for a country after three years of living there, means many of the most talented Pacific Islanders end up playing for the biggest tier one nations rather than their countries of birth.Englands Nathan Hughes is a prime example of this. The Wasps No. 8 was born in Fiji but turned down the chance to play for them at last years World Cup and could even line up against them in Eddie Jones pack at Twickenham on Saturday.If you are a young -Fijian who wants to play rugby professionally as a career, you cant stay in Fiji, Ryan said. World Rugby are looking to change the residency law from three to five years, but I dont think that will work because players will just go younger.For me, it comes back to giving us an opportunity on the island with a franchise. Super Rugby could own a part of it and it would keep everyone on the island and we could build academies, which would generate a pathway for players and coaches.Ever since I went to the island, I have been thinking about how we get Fiji, Tonga and Samoa to be consistent World Cup quarterfinalists and knocking on the doors of the semifinals. The number one thing is to have a Super Rugby franchise.Aaron Rodgers Youth Jersey .

We want to thank Deilor for all the passion, hard work and dedication he brought to Fnatic.Sevilla became one of the most decorated coaches in Western League of Legends history in under two years coaching Fnatic in the European League of Legends Championship Series. He led the team to two consecutive split championships last year, including the summer season where the team went an unprecedented 18-0 in the regular season.He also helped the team to an impressive record in international competitions: While Sevilla was head coach, Fnatic reached the semifinals of both the 2015 Mid-Season Invitational and 2015 World Championships, and this year the team made the finals of the 2016 IEM World Championship in Katowice, Poland.Although the team has found success abroad this year, Fnatic has struggled at home to keep its golden legacy intact. The team failed to three-peat in the spring split after threee of its core players from the previous year departed in the offseason, including Bora YellOwStaR Kim, Kim Reignover Yeu-jin, and Heo Huni Seung-hoon.dddddddddddd Fnatic finished in third place last split, and this season its even been a rockier ride, even with YellOwStaRs return. Fnatic will be entering its quarterfinal matchup in the playoffs as underdogs against the revitalized H2k Gaming on August 14.Our results are the consequence of how the team has been working and its clear that there are issues that Im not able to fix, said Sevilla in his departing statement. For the last couple of months my work hasnt [led] us to a healthy environment, the team has barely improved and we didnt have positive results. From my point of view, this is not acceptable with such a talented roster.Nicholas NicoThePico Korsgaard, formerly an analyst and head coach with Origen, has been promoted to head coaching duties for the remainder of the split.
