The Pacific islands, with a population of 2-3 million and not much money. Why bother?I am all for growing our game but is Asia the right place?
I think South Africa should be number 1. The game is already growing there and they only have a few sports so plenty of room for another.
The Pacific islands are also worth exploring further. Our game is the no 2 sport in PNG and no 1 in Nauru. India can also work but South Africa and the Pacific should be our focus.
It's also striking how people continue to talk about Asia like it's one big monolith that's all same same.
When you actually separate it into different countries, the suggestion that 'we should expand into Asia' really doesn't make much sense. Where exactly? Are we talking about Japan or Thailand or Bangladesh? These are very different countries.
