"Where was the revolution? Where was the wholesale change this sport needed?"
Martin Devlin is unimpressed with how the World Rugby elections have turned out, with current chief Bill Beaumont re-elected for another four years.
While it is unsurprising that the Six Nations-backed him, Devlin wants to know why Fiji and Samoa decided to back the status quo.
Devlin describes the news as "grim", and questions what benefit the move has for those countries - when the decision likely means little reward for the All Blacks.
