[QUOTE="psychic duck, post: 697921, member: 48703"] Firstly UAR themselves agreed to that June arrangement, secondly other teams would only recruit a tiny amount of players, I would rate the chances of Argentines in a Japanese team very slim. Frankly this is one of the most hair brained ideas I've seen for a long while, for the reasons outlined by others above. No precedent to a top level international side limiting themselves to one team. French teams seeing value in a non international player will bid more, and they will be hard pushed to outbid them for all, the Pumas don't have the depth SANZAR has to cope with losses to key players. Ayerza, Lobbe, Lavannini, Agulla and Imhoff are all players already contracted beyond the World Cup as well, I guess they can scratch them all out of their plans. [/QUOTE]
