I don't think a five nations tournament would do England any good whatsoever. Fair enough, for the minor nations it gives them something to look forward to every year - the chance to try and beat England - but for England it's a waste of time. If we beat them all, so what! When Man utd or Arsenal have a bad run in the premiership no one suggests that they start playing against non-league teams to sort their problems out!

Ireland Republic.Ireland Whales and Scotland and if we hold a copitition like this our international sides might fair better in the European Chapionships and the World cups .
