WELLINGTON (Reuters) - While World Rugby's hopes of reinvigorating the international game died with the scrapped Nations Championship, the southern hemisphere's Super Rugby playoffs this weekend has demonstrated that engaging with developing nations can reap rewards.

The proposed Nations Championship was scrapped by the world governing body on Wednesday after it failed to garner unanimous approval from the game's most powerful nations.
