[QUOTE="Groundhog, post: 1099671, member: 50079"] I think the overwhelming majority of lads who we can expect to call on in a year's time "know the systems" by now, and we always have the six nations to pull together a big.... I hate to use the phrase but Shadow Squad where at least they'd be training in and around the first teamers. I know and am happy that our system has and always will be national team first even to the detriment of provinces (very carefully managing game time of key players etc), but I think we could really do without this. Edit: throwing spaghetti at the wall, but would a few wolfhounds games during the November window not have been a shout? Logistically complicated, but still. [/QUOTE]
