Agreed. Thurston really gets on my nerves, trying to influence him publicly like that. Jerk.
Thurston probably doesn't have to say much... Ponga played all of he's rugby league in Australia and he's Australian born... He's only been in nz for 5 years before moving back to Australia again for good... He has every right to play for Australia if he wants to

Kiwi level and tonga is different.... Kiwis play tier 1 nations all the time... He will get exposed by the kangaroos big time

Means nothing for he's not eligible! And he isn't!

That's what people like you need to realise...Not everyone is eligible for everyone and bending the rules to make it so ruins the sport...

PS the last time the kiwis played 2tier...They drew with Scotland!

So who is going to win this Test anyway? How important is a NZ victory for the World Cup?

Actually hurrells been in the kiwis training squad before... He is eligible... People like me? I'm one of the first to hate the tier 1 nations when they take everyone... I hope the tier 2 nations eliminates the one of them at the world cup

He never played for the kiwi test team you f**king idiot!

Only playing for the test team cements his residency

Had he completed his 3 years residency and then played for the kiwis he'd have been golden...But he didn't!!!

The residency law is you must have been resident in your chosen country for 5 year up to and including the year you are selected...Meaning it's 5 years of continuos residency..

You can't live there for 5 years as a kid,move to Oz as a 12 year old,or what ever,and still be eligible for NZ...It doesn't work like that....

And it's shocking that only Ozzie's or kiwis that don't get it!! Wtf is wrong with you lot???

Wow just calm down haha hurrell can still play for the kiwis you idiot... Hurrell is already a nz residence he's been there more then 5 years... he played all he's rugby league there... And he doesn't need to play for the kiwis to confirm he's residence cause he's already a kiwi even if he moved to Aussie... And I ain't a kiwi supporter Dickhead

Under the laws he isn't supposed to be eligible for us unless he has a NZ passport now.

That's weird then cause they asked hurrell a few weeks ago in a article if he would still be keen to play for the kiwis at the world cup... He denied in the end cause he wants to represent he's home nation...

Vunivalu was also asked if he'd like to play NZ or Australia in the World Cup, even though he is eligible for neither under the rules.

Some journos and fans ignorant of the rules assume every decent player HAS TO BE eligible for one of the big 3. A good player from outside NSW, QLD, NZ or England? Unheard of!

No Vunivalu cos he doesnt qualify under the residency rule for NZ, besides, I would rather he play for Fiji and Ponga probably still hasnt made up his mind.

Kata? What makes you want to name him?
Out of form, poor defensively, and did sweet f-a for us last tour.
Seems like a selection on past reputations.
