[QUOTE="snoopy snoopy dog dog, post: 500959, member: 13611"] A possible byproduct of the USA playing 7-10 tests per season against a good standard of opposition is that representing the US national team would become far more attractive to US qualified players. For example people like Tommy Seymour (Glasgow), Callum Black (Ulster) and Hanno Dirksen (Ospreys) are all eligible for the Eagles. If all declared for that country, they'd likely be in or around the 22 and would seriously increase their national team's strength in depth. They're more likely to declare seeing as they'd play meaningful tests every year instead of in just a World Cup year as is currently the case. [/QUOTE]
