[QUOTE="Peat, post: 713412, member: 42330"] It just doesn't really count for much at all. Increasingly and increasingly, that's the opinion I'm coming to. If it did, we wouldn't be in this situation. Once your system can produce in adequate numbers to maintain a pool of a good 40 or so international standard rugby players at any one time, the rest is gravy. Theoretically you have a better chance of uncovering immense players, but the reality is raw potential is nothing and learning is the key - and our biggest numbers possibly leads to us spreading our international caps more thinly, thus working against our aim. That's equally theoretical really. [/QUOTE]
