This is hypothetical, but if the SH teams were to play as many games as the NH teams during the same period as the NH teams, can you honestly see SA and NZ teams being loaded with NH players?? I can't. We would rather pick our own guys and try to find the next diamond-in-the-rough.
If those teams were clubs, backed by individuals/ran their own finances independently to the SARU then you'd try, and fail due to the strength of the pound/euro.
SH teams do whats best for themselves within their pre-defined structures, NH teams do it within theirs. Again i re-iterate comparing how SA & NZ et al work is utterly pointless, because it is not a model that is in effect in England and France.
