When Barrie Cassidy originally hosted Offsiders (for the first decade ...) it was actually decent.* Gerard Whateley then took over and that was a step down. Moving to the current incarnation, though, it became total shite. The show went "Full Melbourne", with everything that this implies.** *...

Probably. Only way to see a SANZAAR hosted final would be if the end-of-year tests were the first half of the comp. But I don't think the mid-year test window is long enough to include finals. Plus the SH countries are geographically too far apart.

I seem to recall Bob Dwyer with some other backers (...or maybe it wasn't Dwyer...) wanting to buy a French club a while back for something like this. A warehouse team overseas for Aus players.
