How about this team?

Alnwick
Spillane Stefanovic Askou Lappin
Smith Hughes Adeyemi McVeigh
Maric MacDonald

An XI who are regarded, every one of them, as not as good as what started yesterday. How many would they have lost by? If the competition for places is between a team that lost 7-1 and eleven players who are even worse than them, I'd like someone to explain why "competition for places" is such a good thing.
