Russia to bid for 2023 Rugby World Cup

Russian schools are trying to get more kids playing the game and a lot of money has been invested in that. I'm very impressed by Russia's preparation for Sochi 2014 Winter Olympics. The Rugby World Cup has never been to that part of the World before, does Russia have a chance of winning the bid to host another major sporting event?

After Japan's failed bid for the current Rugby World Cup I would like to see it go to a least recognised country. However you are weighing up expanding the sport of rugby against potentially low crowds.
