[QUOTE="Mr Ruggleby, post: 918300, member: 41553"] I don't mind Shields playing for England - rules are rules, but I think calling him "English" is a stretch. His parents moved to New Zealand as young children in 1964 and 1966 respectively. They were raised and educated in New Zealand, Shields was born, raised and educated in New Zealand. Both him and his parents supported the All Blacks until his switch and have god awful kiwi accents. English qualified? sure, English? only in the loosest technical sense at best [/QUOTE]
