i know, but then if it's a blowout score then it just makes the international game look even more dodgy.

it most likely wont be. look at recent matches of AUS V NZ and AUS V GB. Both have been close. Now imagine if NZ and GB were combined. Very unlikely to be a blowout. Originally Posted by Steve Dangerous

exactly
How about having a exempting players that play for developing countries from the salary cap? or making a seperate salary cap for those players, catch is if they do that those players are not eligible for SOO or Australia

Sorry, but if we do this, we can kiss International League goodbye forever!
++What if they lost???It would be a DISASTER! ABSOLUTE DISASTER! All the hard work and creditability will just be burnt to the ground.
There would be a media frenzy if we ever did this, people would say we did it because League isnt played anywhere else but Aus, everyone else is so **** that we have resorted to this....not only is it insulting to GB and NZ...its just ridiculous!
WORST IDEA EVER!...SERIOUSLY!

What do you mean what if? They would lose. There are players not selected in Australian sides that would probably make that world side. Originally Posted by smerk

We all have one, we are all entitled to oneOpinion: a personal belief or judgment that is not founded on proof or certainty
Keep that in mind when posting at this forum whether you are for or against it.
The thread was born to simply provide debate on an idea that has been looked at before AND to get members to perhaps nominate a World 17 team made up ALL nations barring the Australian team.
Cheers

Sorry mate, I know your not an idiot, your post just inspired me to create that list, sorry if you were offended.
By the way, calling you an idiot is hardly abuse, abuse is such an ugly word, it could be moderately upsetting depending on your social/cultural context. If you were deeply offended, Im sorry, either way I apologize.
DeeGan, on what are you implying by your post?
A. That I was not accepting of ridgey's comments
B. I do not accept your opinion?
I dont get it, my posts were opinionated, so whats the problem?
I still fail to understand what I did wrong. I posted a message, a forum member didnt agree with my thoughts, which I thought was rather ignorant, considering his knowledge of the International scene was rather basic. I just wanted to re-enforce my opinion that this idea is not needed.
I understand, idiot, was not appropriate in this forum, but please, elaborate on what I did wrong - excluding calling him an idiot.Last edited by smerk; 03-10-05 at 04:48 PM.

Whilst I appreciate the thought put in to the above, there is no need to elaborate as for one I don't have the time this afternoon.
Have your opinion, post in rebuttle to members who may agree or disagree and leave the name calling for another forum.
