What about a Southern Hemisphere Games, with Brazil to get the
crowds, Chile, Argentina, Oz, NZ, SA and maybe somewhere like
Angola.
I think alot of players would get released from other leagues with
perhaps the exception of Ryan Nelson and a few others.
Overseas clubs would not release their players for what would essentially be friendly games, especially if they're not scheduled in the FIFA window. So that would pretty much only leave the A-league and NZFC players for us.

Simon Elloit and players like him I would think would get released
as their teams do not need them.

But they also pay them. The clubs are also reluctant to release players they don't really need because of the potential they may sustain an injury and become even more of a deadweight. They also may need them if the situation in the club changes through injury, suspensions, etc, so that serves as another disincentive for the clubs to release the players unless they really have to.

Trans Tasman Series
I was watching the news tonight and heard that NZ football were
thinking about organising a 3-match series against Australia at the
end of the A-League and make it a regular fixture.
That would be mint. A bit like the tri-nations league matchs?
I suppose if it happened it would only involve players from the
A-league. Would a pretty good end to the season, although we'd
probably struggle.
If it only involved players from the A-league then we'd not have
enough for a full team.
It would be way better if it was Australia's best versus NZ's best.

Apparently, it is actually going to be a quadrangular series involving Brazil and the 1966 England World Cup winning side
...I don't think so....
Chuck the South Africansinto the mix and have a Football Tri series
I say! This was mooted some time ago but never got off the
ground.
Now you're talking. A Southern Hemishphere Tri-series of
footie. SA, Oz, NZ.
Not feeling generous enought to add Argentina.

No one would be up for it except nz and mabe angola. Or they
might all be up for it and decide to include us.
A tri series with Aus and Sth africa would be mint. But we
dont want to be seen to be ripping off Rugby ideas.
Who cares what Rugby thinks we are doing. League has a tri-nations
aswell.
Rugby copied the Football World Cup, but its not as good a fit for Rugby because there aren't enough rugby playing nations to add depth to their competition! Only gets interesting at Semi Final time! So why can't we copy the tri nations concept????

El grapadura good point. Maybe they could do the series after the
EPL because I think that the A-league isn't on at that time.
However they it would be fair if they did it straight after because
some of Australias best players play overseas aswell as ours but it
would make it more even I would think.

Simon Elliot is not playing for anyone bc he is injured
Hes not going to be injured to the end of the A-League and I didn't
mean him directly just meaning players who don't play regularly.
Don't mean to be a kill joy but we used to have a series against
the Aussies but this was dropped and for those with a bit of
memory, every couple of years, NZ Football raises the idea but
nothing comes of it. They talked about it in the 90s, the
early 00s and even the game in 05 was supposed to be the start of
it.
They did a shoddy job of it then seeing that the game was played in
England! Hows that supposed to get more Kiwi's behind the team?
Nah. dont think it would happen. FFA (f**king football in Australia) would know who to organise it and would f**k it up anyway.
