Maybe it's just Ireland's particular rotation that bothers me, with France and England generally being the 2 strongest teams long term.
Given the generally accepted 7 points for home advantage you have a situation where Ireland on their 'easy year' may only be the 3rd best team but are favourites to win the competition, whilst on their 'difficult year' they may be the best team but have an expectation of finishing just third.
I don't see that the current rotation should be stuck with forever just because to change it would mean Wales being away to England 2 years running or whatever.
