Hi,
With the summer tour fixtures coming up (or already underway in Wales' case), I'm putting a list together of the best players to have represented Gloucester without winning an international cap. So basically I'm looking for some suggestions and hopefully it will create a bit of a healthy debate. Who do you think should be included and why?
Cheers,
Rob

Richard Mogg. Would have earned countless England caps had he played at a fancy dan outfit. The best winger in England for several years.

Trinder for me, a wonderful talent who I can only hope gets a proper chance, as we won’t win a World Cup with Joseph, Te’o etc

John Gadd and Moggy would stand out for me.
Slightly before my time but I believe Mike Nicholls was unfortunate not to get at least one cap during the 60s.

John Gadd. I'm probably wrong but I seem to recall him playing for England in several non-cap matches but was never selected for the real thing
The only problem with doing nothing is not knowing when you have finished.

Nick Wood was exceptionally unlucky as well
