RWC 2011 - Which club has provided the most players?

Post by Tiger_Dad »

With Tigers providing 11 players to the RWC this is clearly more than any other English club. I was therefore wondering how that ranks amongst the other clubs in their countries?

I'm sure it's easy enough to get hold of a comprehensive list of each national squad that lists the players' clubs.
Whatever you do, don't argue. We might never hear from you again.

This was discussed at length on another thread if you choose to look.

Bluntiger and BJ - Thank you for almost being being helpful but;

1). In my book two posts do not constitute a topic as been discussed at length

2). The thread on the Sarries site does not address my question

If you are able to contribute to this thread that would be grand :smt002

I was being being helpful - I told you want to look for. I found a full list within a couple of minutes.

Alternatively you could go through the squad lists and compile a list by club and share it with the rest of us instead ofwaiting for someone else to do it. Just a thought.

It's a good thought and yes I have thought about doing it however before I embark on the somewhat lengthly and laborious task I thought I would put it to our knowledgeable forum members and see if there is an existing list...

Just a thought... :smt002

No. I didn't find it particularly interesting so I discarded it.

You're skating on thin ice there, bluntiger. Having the audacity to tell someone to do something themself usually earns a telling-off or a sarcastic response. :smt018 :smt002

As it only took you a couple of minutes to find the list (and I still can find it) would you be awfully decent and point me in the right direction as to where I might view this?

Many thanks..
