This got me thinking
A. Very few teams could do this B. It would dramatically reduce the level of Superleague in the short term so the powers that be would not allow it.
But What would your team be (and everyone is fit). The rules are simple, you can have as many overseas players as you want but you can only play 5 in any given game. Im counting BRITISH BORN/COME THROUGH THE ACADEMY players here so Hanson ( he was born here wasnt he?) would count Mary wouldnt.

no foreigners at all, all sl players, so why do they rely on hicks, king, monas, rau, anderson, anderson they could get rid of all the imports and put up a better job.
not as good as wire all british squad with 3 props on bench but can also do it, just proves teams dont need any imports and they not stopping developement as much as most people make out.

I don't think it would. Yes most of them are young but the effort is always there in our academy. Plus with no relegation what do we have to lose?
