I agree. Flutey for example is only playing for England becase he was living there for years so qualified. As soon as he starts playing for England he moved off to France.

Has never been in the team because of reputation or lack of competition and has been in the “world class” category now for at least 10 years. Chris Patterson and John Hayes however….

Mercernaries will never add anything to a national team, unless they’re exceptioal players – Flutey, et al, are not exceptional players. I know many would disagree with me, but I think players should only be allowed to represent the country in which they were born. There’d definitely be more dedication…

it was great to read the media here in london talk up their chances of a 6N grand slam though!!!
