Eddie Posted November 13, 2019 Share Posted November 13, 2019 Now International Rugby League is (superbly) all the rage and everyone wants heritage players, who could you play for? I could play for England or Poland and possibly Lithuania. I’ve recently given up hope of an England call up but reckon I could do a job for the latter two. If they extended it to Great Grandparents it would open up even more possibilities, must write to the RLIF about that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Futtocks Posted November 13, 2019 Share Posted November 13, 2019 I could play for England or Wales, by the current rules of most international sports.

Eddie Posted November 13, 2019 Author Share Posted November 13, 2019 Just to clarify by ‘do a job’ I meant drive the team bus or something like that. I’d get carried off after I’d been tackled a few times these days Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

themainbrace Posted November 13, 2019 Share Posted November 13, 2019 I could play for Ireland or England except that I'm past it and wasn't even that good when I was younger. I have to say that given the chance I probably would have preferred to play for Ireland as I'd imagine that they'd have more of the Craic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Future is League Posted November 14, 2019 Share Posted November 14, 2019 England and Ireland for me, but its a mystery to me why people don't want to play for the country that they were born and bred in, or have lived most of their life's.
