I've heard that some people are suggesting a game between the British Lions and a SH side (new zealand, australia, samoa & fiji).
I think this could be a good idea to be played once every 5 years or so, but with one difference all the money raised to go to charity i.e help for heroes or maybe the fund for the Canterbury earthquake. The games to be played at a different venue each time "twickers", the MILLENNIUM stadium as well as southern hemisphere venues. Is there anyway I can raise a petition or something to try to get this off the ground. If anybody can help please get in touch.

Re: BRITISH LIONS V SOUTHERN HEMISPHERE TEAM
2015 is the centenary of the Allied landing at Gallipoli and an ANZAC XV v Allied Forces XV has been suggested as a possibility. Irrespective of the fundamental historical inaccuracy here, that'd be entertaining (of course, it would be a bit of an embarrassment if Australia and New Zealand showed up to play a German/Turkish combined team!).Gleisondyn wrote:I've heard that some people are suggesting a game between the British Lions and a SH side (new zealand, australia, samoa & fiji).

I imagine if this is to happen, it is already being planned.
