This idea is awesome but as many of you have eluded to, the game would be pointless if the final was NH v NH or SH v SH. Personally I'd rather see dream teams playing instead of a 3rd v 4th game. By that I mean the form 44 players of the competition who aren't competing in the final are selected for two separate teams that play each other. Obviously the players would be evenly distributed, that way you could have Carter playing against McCaw if and when the Kiwi's get eliminated in the QF's. This gives players the opportunity to dish out pain on fellow squad members who they have grudges against 
.
This game would have to be played in good spirit and I'd rather see it taken light-heartedly by the players AND REFEREE. There would have to be pre-requisites such as the minimum players from each nation and maximum but you can see the possibility of playing with players who the usual superstars would never cross paths with. It allows rugby to be played the way its meant to be, in good spirit and for fun.
Just an idea.. Gives form players an extra game during the competition, obviously would be a voluntary thing as not all would want to play. Also wouldn't have any interchange regulations
