Analysis by the numbers (team by team review) – Axios Euro Cup 2014

Interesting point. You can only go so far inside your own ballpark. Probably regular competition against "the big 4" of Ireland, South Africa, PNG and NZ I guess. A bit optimistic. A good start would be an annual international against Ireland. At some point a few years back we tried to instigate an annual triangular event with Ireland and GB (who are also on a par with Denmark), but the European and International events kept getting in the way - financially I mean. All of this is still amateur so the transport for all of these trips is paid for by the players.
So obviously money would be a good start. But also some sort of formal structuring of alot of nations would also be useful because it would prevent folks from wasting resources on mismatches. It was great for the Danes to with the EC but, like the IC, there was a disturbing number of extremely one-sided games. It has to happen to a certain extent but with 16 countries now in it, maybe some seeding is needed even for humble Europe (div 1 and 2 for example).
