Can anyone please tell me how many England Test Rugby players are born Englishman? I believe that the International Teams who have players with other Nationalities should not be allowed to play in the International Test series!

Start with Scotland, that'll keep you busy. Google is your friend
Then write to the World Rugby to change the eligibility rules.
Weird to single out England, don't think we have any residency players?

Off the top of my head:
- Underhill born in America as his Dad was stationed there in the RAF at the time
- M.Smith born in the Philippines, English dad and moved to England at a young age
- IFW born in Cardiff but English dad
- Roebuck born in Scotland but no links to the country (Grandparents had retired there, parents wanted to be around family when having their first kid - moved back to England at 3 weeks old)

How are you a born Englishman? Literally born here so if your mum has you in the car driving frantically to get out of Wales in time... does either side of the bridge decide who you can play for?
Or maybe parents and grandparents? Which means our entire team is made of Englishmen. Dont think we have any players on residency?

Feels like hes taking about Opoku, or Ojamah...
England are probably the better of the 6N teams i would have thought, youd hope so with their player base, resources and the migration attraction.
As above, are scotland in double figures?
Ah, so he's just racist...

I mean, it would take about 3 minutes of research that England are probably the country with the least imports/ questionable players...
Is it such a leap from seeing a number of foreign sounding names on the team sheet and assuming theyre not english?

There must be something out there to show this as I am interested by country, who is qualifying by being born there, parents grandparents and residency.
That's a hell of a first post.
Welcome to the board pal. You can leave now though.

I think they did a nanosecond after they hit the post button.
I have a feeling that IFW growing up in wales is not the issue this guy has with him.
And if trump really wants to make America great again he’d get under hill to play for his rightful country.
And nothing of value was lost.
