I guess it depends on what it means to the international coach. Wane obviously wants it, and if he makes it clear that this is a test match trial and sticks to that, then I guess the players and clubs can make up their own minds with regards to their international ambitions. I think the sport owes itself to give it ago with IMG giving it the big push. Headingley would make a great initial choice for a Roses match on a Saturday afternoon. You've got to start somewhere with these things.

Need a big sponsor to pull a good Roses series. Hadn't considered the wages factor but that is key. Big match fee and prize money would certainly help.

That's why it's so important that IMG drive this. It's something that could be a success if it's properly worked through, as opposed to the usual "it's a bit sh*t, but it will do" approach RL traditionally prefers.

Needs a carrot dangling in front of the clubs too to release the players otherwise as previously mentioned earlier in the thread certain clubs will suddenly pull their players or they'll become mysteriously unavailable.

Would you want to shout about it?

Without a doubt
