Maybe that's the idea but as soon as you put 44 competitive blokes on the field and say "good luck boys. This will be the only SOO game in the foreseeable future so whoever wins is the best SOO team for at least the next ten years. But don't be too competitive." They might say yes at first but the first time one of them gets knocked off the ball then their competitiveness will kick in and it will be on for young and old.
