(splitting hairs- sorry)


what happens if your parents are Australian and say your father was an origin legend. But you were brought up in say NZ could you play origin...


Even more hair splitting what happens if your parents were both aboriginal but you were brought up overseas?...(id love to see how the NRL would handle this one)


I'm glad you cleared up the hair thing bateman.... your personal life should be kept to yourself.

Not sure what yr getting at anyway.

This is pretty easy but i haven't read all responses.

In either scenario, as long as you have committed to playing for australia then it is where you played your first senior game of footy IN australia. SO you may have lived all you life in NZ to australian parents and played for the warriors and if you came to australia for the first time with their first grade side and played against the roosters, then you'd be eligible for NSW but if you played against the Titans you be eligible for Qld. If you played v Melbourne then it would count and it would be you next game in either NSW or QLd. As long as you have said you are eligible for and choose the Australina jumper it is ok.


Yep pretty much what I said.

I wasn't bagging em for it. I'm over that, they followed the rules and acted accordingly.
