[QUOTE="Vieux Talonneur, post: 867096, member: 73144"] Nope. The rarity is what gives it its value. Don't kill the golden goose. I suppose the one change I'd like to see is a quota requiring at least 3 from each nation are in match day squads. Could it work in reverse for a composite SH team......I dunno, the Southern Skunks? They could tour every four years mid way between Lions tours, perhaps to France & Italy, then Eng & Sco then Wal & Ire with a couple of tests against each country? I'd be far more interested to see tours like that than just another round of eminently forgettable AIs. Who wouldn't want to see the best of the SH midweek under floodlights in front of partisan crowds at Ravenhill, Thomond Park or Welford Rd? Again quotas apply to stop the Skunks being the ABs in disguise. [/QUOTE]
