There will always be imports, but if the purpose of the game is to provide England with a competitive fixture, playing against low quality imports isn't going to give that.
But then again, England can be pretty poor

| as for imports it will make very little diferrence, the days of wally lewis, peter sterling, brett kenny etc are long gone.
if they are playing here its simply because they are not wanted badly enough by the nrl.
unfortunately i can see some of our top brits going in the other direction though.
the gap is just getting bigger. personally i would scrap the salary cap but this is a view not many share

icons077e_files/4864-863FALH-msnicons.jpg How is education supposed to make me feel smarter? Besides, every time I learn something new, it pushes some old stuff out of my brain. Remember when I took that home winemaking course, and I forgot how to drive?:icons077e_files/4864-863FALH-msnicons.jpg |

If the NRL take 20 plus of our best players they can play it in Australia ( Iam sure it would be no bother playing a mid season international as they would not have to travel) & the lads still here play France. But in all seriousness whatever hapens the Aussies wont give a to$$ about what hapens here never have never will. I will just wait & see as most changes in our game throw up unforseen efects.

Exactly.
And France have been poorer!
It will continue until the French/Welsh have enough depth that having a French/Welsh international does not affect their clubs to the point where they won't want to release most of their players, thus resulting in the inevitable whitewash and non-event of the past 4 years.
