It's all well and good just saying that club teams will win etc. etc. The simple fact is that almost all international players say that international rugby is a step-up from anything they play at club rugby, and I kinda belive them more than any fan. I know you're a club supporter above international Mite, but that doesn't mean that club rugby is of a higher standard, more entertaining? Possibly, especially the HC, but not better.

If the 13 Ospreys who beat England in '08 played anywhere near that level for the O's, they would have lifted the HC that year aswell with relative ease.
