[QUOTE="Mcfadden, post: 744291, member: 72865"] I don't think it's a case of what legislation says you are. That would be great for almost any other occupation. But this is international sport, and we have to apply some context. I think the education you've undertaken (and perhaps there could be exceptions here), the rugby training academies, systems and the country where you've played age grade footy to hone your skills in is entirely relevant. You always learn of course. Learn to improve your game. But no more so than when you're at your most impressionable, the brains doing the most developing, and where you learn the most essential skills at under 18. That's my opinion though really, and I think whatever solution you came up with someone out there would have a problem with it. [/QUOTE]
