[QUOTE="Reiser99, post: 983644, member: 72977"] Here's an interesting question that always comes up each year. How well represented should the bottom clubs be? Saracens maybe ignore as they would be second if not for off-field rule-breaking. Leicester are currently bottom in terms of form, but should that affect individual players. Having said that, Old Hooker's team above had 4 in the 23 and that's about 1/6th of the team, yet there are 10 teams in the premiership. On the flip side Gloucester have really been improving over the last few years, but they always seem to have their players overlooked. Chiefs have had a few more, but considering they are consistently at the top some players can definitely feel hard done by. Just curious about what everyone thinks. Btw I'm not saying if a team is at the bottom players shouldn't be picked from it, but more should the club's position be one (of many) considerations when selecting a squad, even if it's just a small consideration?
