Am all in favour of a 6 Nations. Though I'd start with a 4 Nations of England, Wales, France & Scotland. I'd have each nation play each other once but don't have a final. So 3 games, every year.We have to start relatively small and build over time. Even that 3 guaranteed top games every year would be a massive improvement on the current international calendar.
Establish a "home ground" for the other nations. So Wales, for instance, always play their home games at the same place and start to build. If nations and players both know there are 3 games every year they can plan and start to really develop a feeling of a proper national team, not just a bunch of randomly selected players who get together 2 weeks before the next one-off game.
