So you are saying that anyone should be able to compete for any country at the Olympics, Commonweatlh Games, Fifa World Cup and all other 'World Championships' if their birth country doesn't select them. Get real. That int. law is there to protect players representing their country of origin and not to be squeezed out by money men buying in players.

that international law is the most stupiest of all,if a player is not wanted by the AB's anymore why stand down denying him a chance to play for another country? rucby union has no logic and no wander people are turned off it.

Henry not stupid ? Then tell me why he has taken McCallister; who is not match fit, is carrying an injury and when he did play he was rubbish.

Tell me why he has taken Mils when he hasn't played at all for many many weeks; hence he is no way near match fit and already granted extended leave.

Tell me why he has taken Sivivatu when this player is also not match fit and has carried a lingering groin injury since the Super 14.

Not stupid ???? Yeah right. Time he took away players that are the form players, are match fit and not 'teachers pets'. The three I mentioned were liabilities even before they got on to the plane.

Reason behind selections Reply to this message
Under the current rules, a player who has played for NZ, cannot play for another Country, DeMalmanche is no longer eligable to play for Wales, because he played a few minute sof a game for NZ,there are others too, who will be sitting in the stands,because of their selections for one or two AB games, Henry isn`t as stupid as we think.
