[QUOTE="LittleGuy, post: 669356, member: 44360"] I love that article smartcooky linked, I especially love the line...."But now that several nations have sought clarity around the detail - and asked whether individuals need to be in the squad or get on the field at a sevens tournament to satisfy the criteria" so some of these countries didn't even want to go through the motions of sending the guy out on the field in a slightly jokey manner and instead wanted to stuff their names on a squad leave the rest of their 7's team shorthanded that particular event and have him come to their XV's sides for the RWC. Absolutely embarrasing stuff, dosen't mention the countries by name but I have a feeling MOANu Samoa was on the forefront. [/QUOTE]
