Sir: Real rugby fans will breathe a sigh of relief if England stay out of the Five Nations' Championship. There can be few things less fun than watching England play their version of the game.
Has anyone thought of inviting Italy into the event? Not just to make up the numbers; Italian participation could lead to a blend of experience with Latin flair, which could do much for the game as a whole.
