Why is the Grand Slam not possible when France weren't taking part? According to the description, the title is according when a team beats all other teams - that's possible no matter how many other teams are playing, surely...?

I took out a load of stuff about NZ in 2005 as it was irrelevent on a page purporting to be about the Rugby Grand Slam. 88.105.117.122 22:57, 4 June 2006 (UTC)
And I also added the French name for it - Le Grand Schlem 88.105.117.122 23:00, 4 June 2006 (UTC)
This is a sports term, it has never been used as a political term. Even the Irish media and the IRFU use it with regard to the Irish rugby union team. Will people stop vandalising pages containing the term? GordyB 13:12, 21 February 2007 (UTC)
Is it really necessary to have every year where it was not achieved listed separately? Why can't we just do what we do with the wars etc. and just say something like "1958-67: Not achieved"? It would save a lot of time browsing down the page. Ygoloxelfer 15:53, 25 June 2007 (UTC)

There is an article called Grand Slam tours. Do we need to duplicate the information in this one?-- Victor Yus ( talk) 08:33, 6 March 2012 (UTC)

Proposed to merge this article into the article Grand Slam (rugby union), which already covers this topic. Please see the other article's talk page.-- Victor Yus ( talk) 12:35, 6 March 2012 (UTC)

Presumably a grand slam tour could be won by any touring team that wins all four matches against the Home Nations. The only other contender at the moment might be Argentina. But, the point I am making is I that think the section would be improved if it indicated that this is not the exclusive to NZ, AU and ZA, its just that to date only those teams have had the ability to win a Grand Slam Tour. -- PBS ( talk) 17:43, 27 February 2018 (UTC)
