| Quote: headhunter "Probably because the match is a complete joke. The Exiles are not an international team, there is no reason for this fabricated team to exist, no incentive for anyone to be interested as a player or fan, the whole concept is the latest in a long line of poorly thought out attempts to 'recreate Origin', which in itself is a flawed exercise. This match is an embarrassment to the sport, it's totally disrespectful, counter-productive and should be removed and replaced with legitimate international matches. The only reason it exists at present is because McNamara felt the need to bring in a bunch of stupid, half-baked initiatives when he was appointed in an attempt to hide the fact that he is totally incompetent and unsuitable for the job.'"
What an utter load of crap.

No appetite in the West.'" I expect a sell-out for the World Cup match against Fiji then.

In every way
... Oh alright then. Because England in order to be competitive team need competitive teams to practice against. This is basically a training session. The Exiles, are a team put together as credible opposition and to be fair they are. Certainly more so than France, Wales, or Scotland.

If, as you claim, the KC is the place to be for drawing a crowd, then they should have no problem selling out for an important World Cup match involving England.

| Should have selected Danny Brough for the Exiles. Would have at least turned this joke fixture into a mildly interesting one.

Given he said he didn't want to play for England, that would seem a silly suggestion

I have responded. However, you may want to go away and look up the meaning of illiterate. Somebody that is illiterate wouldn't have been able to read your post in the first place. Ironically, in that instance I would think such a person lucky.

I didn't realise playing for the Exiles was an audition for playing for England.
