Why not give the £1 million bonus to...

Postby mick745

The first player to lift all four Home Nations events regardless how long it takes?

This would keep interest levels high and increase participation.

Imagine if two or three players were all on three wins each going into the season!!

I wonder where the money goes to when no ones wins it. Given the Home Nations started 3 years ago and it's going to be the 3rd year without anyone winning all 4, they should have £3 million in the bank since they'd need to keep a contingency of £1 million per year just in case someone wins it every year.

It goes in Hearn's pocket.

There won't be £1M just sitting in an account somewhere. They will just have an insurance contract of some sort which pays out if they need the money.

How about 1 million to a player that won 4 Home Nations (aint gonna happen).

500K for a winner of 3 Home Nations (aint gonna happen)

100K bonus for a winner of 2 Home Nations (could very well happen).

Would add a bit more spice to the events. This 1 million bonus is a pure cod.

Pure cod indeed. That was never insured. A bazza gamble.
