Lads in regards the Churchill cup would we not send over a youthful team, a mixture of 20's and development players who would only likely be on bench at most when players are missing for International duty. I know we'd possibly find it very tough but it'd be experience and a good learning curve.[/b]

They could do that but selecting a load of u20 players to go to the Churchill Cup would mean removing them from the World Cup in Argentina which takes place at the same time.

My bad I thought some are deemed overage, but even so still development players etc and really just get as much players experience.
