Sam Whitelock has suggested proposals for a worldwide Nations Championship involving international sides could be expanded to cross-border club encounters.

The All Black centurion, a two-time World Cup-winner and three-in-a-row Super Rugby champion, cited the possibility of a game between his Crusaders side and Munster to back-up the idea's merits.
