is there a way to return an XMLList from a class that reads in a xml?

when

```auto
public function xmlOpener(link:String):void
        {
            urlReq = new URLRequest(link);
            loader.load(urlReq);
            loader.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, xmlDone);
        }
        public function xmlDone(event:Event):XMLList
        {
            xml = XML(event.target.data);
            xmlList = xml.children();

            [SIZE=6]return xmlList[/SIZE]
        }

```

can i do this?
