Maybe it could be played every 2 years and at the end of the season to help maintain a 'special' or 'unique' feel and doesnt become just another pre season game. playing the allstars at the end of the season the fans would still remember their fav players over that season. and playing the game at the end of the season would make the game feel more like a carnival feel and the players picked for the game may approach it more with a light hearted feel, cos currently its seems the players are abit too physical at times in this game (specially some of the indigenous players).
this could be because playing this game at the start of the season is when the players are 'winding up' for the new season and could approach this game as a full representative game (chance to be seen, a potential stepping stone into SOO) where the all stars game should be more about the occassion (during the whole week) and not mainly on the result in the game.
at the end of the season the players would be 'winding down' and would see being part of the allstars as an occasion and less on the actual game played at the end of the week.
