Re: Lions tours could return
If we went back to the GB lions, and did proper tours [including midweek against some clubs sides], it would be the best news to have come out of Red Hall for a while. I'm totally for it as I think the 4 nation's isn't working. And players could represent there own international sides.
And while I'm at it, the only thing to change with regards the world club challenge (back to October just after the GFS, when it will be the sides that won them competing). Other than that leave it alone. It's a one off game to decide the best. If you've not won your own competition, Why should you be regarded as the best.
Interesting that certain people who think SL should be reduced, are all for expanding this comp.

Re: Lions tours could return
I'm not sure that if the Lions tours returned they would be on the scale that they once was.
As regards the WC i think its best its held in the country were a tour is being held, ie if GB/England are in Australia hold it there, if the Aussies are over here, hold it here. The only problem we might have is if the NZ Warriors were to win the Aussie Grand Final. From a personnel point of view i would like to see the WCC held. in any of these locations. Dubai, Singapore. Hong Kong, or Bangkok, or Mumbai to chase the corparate dollar, and perhaps attract more and bigger sponsorship to our game.
