[QUOTE="Hound, post: 884677, member: 75918"] With the exception of the odd big contract on a Giteau or Pocock the Brumbies and Force used to have to do a lot of this in Australian Super Rugby. They pulled away some of the grass roots developmental player rules that the Brumbies used to full force which eventually gave the national squad guys like Jesse Mogg, Scott Fardy and Scott Sio so its now harder... but they still pluck rejected guys from other squads and overlooked players and make it work... Tom Banks, Aidan Toua immediately spring to mind. ...and Joe Powell who was working on the construction site when he was still in his early days with the Brumbies as the third scrum half option.
