I really don't see the point of an England 'A'. Some people are already moaning that the top players play too many games, why risk burning the younger ones out too in a meaningless tournament.

what meaningless tournament is that?

If they're good enough to play international rugby stick them in the main test side.

and then put the best 17 not quite good enough for the main test side in the England A team

UM... yes, they are!

The only reason they played for the other nations was because they were too young and inexperienced to play for the full England team. Given the choice im sure the would have chosen the birth country. This way they can and will at least know they are in the plans somewhere down the line.
