[QUOTE="Haysie, post: 341321, member: 35100"] Sorry Shaggy, as an Australian who has been brought up on the tradition of the Bledisloe Cup and how it is the highlight of Australian rugby I think that would be a terrible idea. It would probably earn more money for a single test match but with it being overseas much of the feeling would be lost, as well as the atmosphere. I can't really cast aspersions on whether or not it would be a profiteering venture however because I have no real idea when talking about that. If there is anyone on an rugby field during a Bledisloe cup match (Or any international for that matter) that isn't playing the best possible rugby and trying as hard as possible, they should be carted from the field immediately. In summary, I would much prefer it from a traditionalist's point of view if the Bledisloe remained here in the two home nations. [/QUOTE]
