    Former New Zealand Rugby chair Brent Impey feels a Nations Championship hosted in Qatar is a smart move

    Former New Zealand Rugby chair Brent Impey feels a Nations Championship hosted in Qatar is a smart move


    Reports have surfaced about the Finals phase of the new competition being hosted being held in the Arab country - which has been accused of human rights violations and was heavily criticised when hosting the 2022 Football World Cup.

    But Impey says - when it comes to professional sport - it's only ever about one thing.
