Hoogie & Thorpe for our 800 free relay?
Schoeman & Hoogie for our 400 free?
How about on the W's side, a couple of th Aussies maybe?
Actually, I fully understood your point, it's the same point people use when they think our industries will be more competitive by limiting our exposure to the competition.

Competition makes more efficient industries, it's called capitalism. Putting up artificial barriers to protect your own industries hasn't traditionally proven to be such a good policy, unless, of course, you are Fidel Castro.
I do prefer American jeans, however.
