What I'd like, but probably won't get.
-Kangaroo tour:
Early announcement
Quality venues including 1 in London
At least 1 game against a tier 2 nation, preferably 2.
-Oceania Cup:
Quality venues
No f**king triple headers
Could we have a final please?
Announcement for 2022 to go to 4 Nations and a final in the top pool (If NZ or Aus are touring, enter an A-team!)
-Tests:
It would be a real good if Aus v NZ could be played at the start of October and end of November to bookend the Kangaroo tour and have a home game for both nations.
A test match Italy v Lebanon mid-year.
Cross-pool Pacific test matches to fill in some of the gaps and as warm ups - PNG v Fiji in the mid-year slot. Samoa v Tonga in October.
Lebanon to host a test match in October and get the public back onside.
-European Cup:
Still waiting on announcement but this is expected to go ahead for 2020 right?
Hopefully a 4 or 6 Nations multi-tiered format featuring England (Knights) with NRL stars going over for all nations.
-Nines:
Asia-Pacific 9s in October, with 12 teams. Or at least an announcement for 2021 before the World Cup. The International Nines concept needs to run annually.
TLDR;
Annually build on what we have.
Focus on good venues, good formats, good teams.
