[QUOTE="Leonormous Boozer, post: 1221585, member: 45598"] I wonder if the Lions would have to give up their test status to invoke that given the clear eligibility rules in WR. It would technically be discrimination otherwise. Not quite the same as nations not picking foreign based players because being resident in a country is a fair term of employment. Not being born there or not living there at certain ages isn't. Clubs are free to be stricter (see Athletic Bilbao only selecting Basque players). [/QUOTE]
