 | | Italian rugby is at a crossroads, and faces much soul-searching. |
 | | Impeding decisions include whether to reform the current Super 10 into four regional teams, whether to bring back their star players from France, England and elsewhere, whether to severely limit the influx of foreign players in the domestic leagues, whether to initiate a system of national rugby academies. |
