For the 7's comp at the start of the year, would a chnage of format be good, where there was only one Australian side in the tournament ?
The reasoning behind this is it doesn't matter about it being the green and golds, an Aussie side is going to win it anyway.
But the impetus would be the offer an outlet where the fans could vote for the Australian 7's side.
Now, this team wouldn't be called the Roos, and would wear a jersey that's not quite green with a gold V.
But imagine an outlet where the fans could vote, say the Internet and a 1900 number (which could also raise money for the RLIF).
Now the team would obviously be selected along the lines of a good 7's side, and imagine the fuss if Melbourne fans voted heaps for a guy like Billy Slater.
And there is enough foreign sides that could make it a 16 team comp, and we'd all love it.
It would offer foreign teams to assemble their squads once a year to develop and help create awareness amongst RL fans of the nations that play.
Plus too I'd rather see a NZ side wear Black and White rather than a warriors jersey.
