All things considered, it may be appropriate if Oz withdraw. It's for the overall good of the game.
We are lowering the tone, both on the field and off...

lets just get its right
there was never a 4nations planned for 2012....so australia have'nt withdrawn from anything!
either england & NZ will play a 3 game baskerville series
or
england & NZ will invite 2 more nations to play a 4nations...
its all down to which idea will make most money......and a blindman could see a baskerville series would trump a poormans 4nations |

Don't forget that the French are desperate for more international fixtures after the big success this year with good crowds and tv exposure. Not having anything else scheduled for them before the 2013 World Cup is a real setback for France. And who's to say a Wales/NZ game couldn't pull in a few quid? |

Thought the NZRL and RFL were still debating who gets to host? The crowd at Eden Park will have certainly strengthened the Kiwi's argument.
Seems like France have asked to not have games against England mid-season, as most of their players are from the same club. |

suppose it all depends on cost...
take a 35-40 man squad on a whirlwind 3-4 week tour with a weekend test team to play NZ and a weekday test team to play the islands
or
a 25-26 man squad on a longer 5-6 week tour playing 4 or 5 games on consecutive weekend
i'd go for the longer tour personally

I think the players would go for anything 5 weeks and under. You could play consecutive weekends and midweek games against the P.I. with a 35 man squad
