Bateman has won Dally M second row of the year.

A whole host of nations (albeit 4 so far). 80% of research complete, all nations (barring the big 3) should be live by January 2020. https://hecanplayfor.weebly.com/

Totally agree, I have quite a bit of Irish heritage and I'm very proud of it. I would love my hypothetical grandson to play for Ireland. It would really show he recognises and embraces that heritage!

This is the only way to determine true eligibility. We need all nations to declare war on each other and see who the players fight for. Blake Austin needs to form a British Expeditionary Force to take NSW by sea or he's cut. If Micky McIlorum hasn't joined an IRA active service unit within 24hrs he never gets to pull on a green jersey again.

Your comment certainly opens up the idea of GB. Whilst the squad that will get selected to tour later this year will almost be solely filled with players born or predominantly schooled in England. The heritage of those selected however may have some greater Celtic connection. Perhaps that is how the team should be marketed. Interview players parents or grandparents who are from the Celtic nations to demonstrate the greater British influence of that team.

Good for you. You obviously had no connection with your heritage. My family has.

Why ?? I’d love my grandson to play for Wales. Iestyn Harris wouldn’t have done so either according to your criteria.

Better than the Residency Rule though.

I'd be nervous of the crew's experience, if they need to be told in big letters which bit of the boat is the hull.
