[QUOTE="die_mole, post: 1089100, member: 73648"] Thank you very much for the link; didn't realize they have gone through this already. §13¶4 Okay are we going to start asking all players who qualify on residency when they actually decided that their new nation is their home. Cause that is a total binary thing. §13¶1 The break in residency was actually in 2019 which really runs counter to everything I've heard at least. Makes sense why they ruled the way they did. §25 Spain needs to get better at lying and World Rugby needs to get better at recognizing lying. §26 hashtags came to bite him in the ass §27 119 of his 127 days spent away in 2019 were in South Africa. Apparently the fact that he refers to himself as a "Saffa" is "not insignificant". Does this mean every white American without a personality qualifies for Ireland? §35 supra my comments on §13¶1 I need to pay attention more the original article did say it was in 2019 he was gone. §38 Judicial Committee apparently body language experts §41 He was living in a "club house" with other players which I think is relevant. He didn't have his own permanent housing which more like living on campus than renting a place near campus and living there year round. §43 now we are getting way too subjective about when the player feels a place has become his home. Isn't the whole point of the criteria to make eligibility objective? §50¶b He visited his parents after the season was over. A bit harsh to count that against him. §50¶f Kind of waving any the fact that his dad was sick during 2019 and that is why spent such a long time in South Africa during that offseason. Say that testimony was not consistent with written testimony. §50¶h Saying he should have flown back between his friend's wedding and his dad heading back to work; which there was a month in between. Apparently World Rugby doesn't care about this guy's carbon footprint. [/QUOTE]
