| Quote declaration="declaration"Obviously it is desirable to have England play mid-season. But any notion that France being whipped once a season is helping them is a bit silly. They'll only get better when more of their players get SL experience (second license?).
What we need is an annual match against a team of northern hemisphere based non-English players.
Have the likes of Dobson and Matt King (who would surely love to play) alongside the best Welsh, Irish, French, and Scottish registered players.
SL fans would love to watch England in a competitive friendly, and would also surely enjoy watching their team's players face England. It's also no shame to lose to such a team.
The only problem is that players may not take playing for this team seriously and will withdraw injured etc. But, with time and by making being picked seem an honour, this team could gain respect.
Then let France concentrate on mid-season friendlies against the likes of Wales or Ireland. Much better for everyone.'"
I like!

| A probowl type game would be good but how would the teams be split? English v the rest or Yorkshire v Lancashire, North v South?

| I like that All Stars idea.
Super League All Stars vs England
Sounds Ameicanis(z)ed aswell which would perhaps aid the American Pro RL bid if coverage could be had over there.

| Probably wouldn't have massive intensity, but as a better preparation for facing Oz/NZ then a combined Other Nationalities team would be better than France.

| Don't call them All Stars, it sounds too corny and American. The English wouldn't buy into it, and that's who you are appealing to here. Something simple like Exiles would be better IMO. Name fits the team well.

| yeah but i think it's finally dawning on the powers that be that the gulf between the top 3 nations and the rest is too vast for games between the 2 to have any meaning or worth....so if it means that england 'A' plays against france,wales,ireland & scotland and the full blown England team plays against a all golds/anzac/other nationalities team....then so be it
and it pains me to say that

| How would ticket sales be for a Four Nations series be affected if the team of former NRL players plying their trade in Super League beat the England side?
