Paul Rees's take:

Interesting throw away line re Ashton. Could prove embarrassing for Randrew and Barron - and expensive to RFU.

From the Times article...
Oct 26: Squads assemble for four internationals at Twickenham.
Nov 8: England v Pacific Islanders.
Nov 15: England v Australia.
Nov 22: England v South Africa.
Nov 29: England v New Zealand.
That's a really long time (5 weekends) to be without all our England players!

It's only one weekend longer than it would have been under the previous agreement. The 4th International (the PRL have agreed to every 2 years) makes it look worse.
However it is proof that money talks louder than the fans in this modern professional era as the clubs agreed to this new deal when they saw the amount of money on the table for them (regardless of what we the fans would have preferred).
Even the Tigers Board supported the new deal in the end thnks to the cash on offer despite it meaning we would lose so many players & them knowing that the fans didn't want it!

Where is Mark Cueto, is he injured, if he isn't it seems that MJ hasn't got much time for Sale.
I was suprised Tom Biggs wasn't included, could it be that if he stays with Leeds he has no international future, perhaps it would help to move to a bigger club, maybe one that is based in the Midlands, maybe one that plays in green.
I was listening to Five Live last night and they said that the money was based on how many players you have in the squad and there was a bonus for having over 65% English qualified players.
