And while we're talking about numbers, if we look at the co-ed tour
which admittedly is somewhat smaller, at nationals one of the teams was
playing iron man, and the team consisted of some of the best players in
british ultimate, so surely we cannot relate the number of players to
the quality of ultimate .  There has also been many instances in the
tour events where the top teams have only fielded a 8 or 9 strong team. 
(Maybe red just need to work on their fitness...)

I do agree that something needs to be done about the tour, but
ostricising players because of their financial position does nothing to
improve the quality of british ultimate.

Just my tuppence worth (as I feel there will be a collection of coppers
soon)
