we would definitely beat the boks 2/3 or 4/5 games. they had a lucky win
Not sure there are many spouting this, barring the usual suspects in the press.
I agree there is an overall upside to the suggestion. But I am not convinced it would happen - too much protectionism and "but that's how we've always done it".
I'd feel for Italy though, as they'd seem to be an obvious casualty. They seem to have turned a corner with the age-groups' performances recently - there has been too much expectation for them to improve quickly - after all, they've only been in there since 2000 and it takes ca. 15 years to produce a junior pro from minis to contract (and that's with a mature development pathway - a la England / Ireland / Wales / France / etc.).
The SA players would also get to meet all their mates playing for Ireland, Italy, Scotland, France... (trollololololollololollolol...)

I can see the pros and cons.

But then it will challenge the "we would definitely beat the boks 2/3 or 4/5 games. they had a lucky win" theory.
I think it would be good for the 6Ns overall.
