      @@MichaeldeSousaCruz well yes it is Michael. Jonah was born in New Zealand, as I noted, and was a New Zealander by nationality and Tongan by descent. He was never a Tongan by nationality I don't believe. You've confused nationality with descent. So what is your point?

      @@theflaver nope no confusion on my part at all. If Jonah wanted to become a citizen of another country say Tonga he has every right to. And if he wished to have represented Tonga in international rugby after representing NZ then WR would have violated his human rights by denying him that.

      @@MichaeldeSousaCruz IF... it didn't happen did it... but he sure had that right to do so... even if it was against the rules of the game to then play for Tonga. I do believe that if an athlete plays only a few international games, some low number, for one country that they should be able to move to another county that they have some familial relationship to.

      Chris - how have you worked that one out?????
      After I left the club (having been below budget every year) - the team remained in the championship for another two years. I was very proud of our achievements with my time at the club.
