Okay?

So, you can't because there's no way you get a cutoff date for everyone to get out of a contract.

But let's just say, you're going to come back to South Africa after Leinster.

And so, when your contract comes up for renewal, you're already coming back.

We'll pick you.

But we're not going to now find out that next week you've extended your contract for three more years and now we're still going to pick you because that's not where we want to get to.

Now, imagine 150 players.

We've probably got about 350 players overseas playing in Japan, France, all over Russia, whatever.

We've got players playing all over the world.

Imagine if just 100 came back.

We've got four franchises.

That's 25 to each franchise.

It means 25 of those franchise players go to the next level down, which is the

the Curry Cup level.

Those 25 Curry Cup players would now go down another level.

So the pyramid gets bigger and bigger and your rugby gets stronger from the bottom up.

Now, the way it is now, the model is that if you had 350 players playing overseas, we'd probably pick an international side offshore that would beat the side that plays at home.

Fact.

probably if you look at it, all the players who are playing are Cheslin Colby's and I know they're coming back, but think about Cheslin Colby and Erkia Sneeman and Jesse Krill and Lacania Amm and we'd probably have a team and remember that there's a lot of props outside.

Thomas Dutoit is playing at Bath.
