[QUOTE="Juggernaut, post: 144268"] Isa Nacewa only played the last two minutes in the 2003 world cup match for Fiji....thats why he doesn't want to play for Fiji anymore..he refused to contact the Fiji rugby Union during the trials....when he was contacted by the Fiji rugby union he declined the offer to the trials and said that he has club commitments...After the 2007 world cup...Isa Nacewa is going to be valid to play with the All Blacks...I think he is aiming for the All Blacks as a utility player.....Isa Nacewa has brought his case to the IRB about how he only played two minutes for Fiji...I know that he is going to be valid for the All blacks after four years without representing Fiji. [/b][/quote] You read the eligibility rules wrongly brother. It doesnt matter if he played for 3 mins or 3 hours, the main thing is he HAS played for Fiji and that ultimately rules him out from ever representing another nation. The 3 year stand-down period is for players who are living in their host nation but has never played for their "original" nation at National level (1st team, "A" team & 7s team). [/QUOTE]
