[QUOTE="gingergenius, post: 255223"] <div class='quotetop'>QUOTE (GimleyUK @ Apr 1 2009, 10:24 PM) [url='index.php?act=findpost&pid=388579']<{POST_SNAPBACK}>[/url]</div> HA HA HA HA HA HA Yeah thats it....! because the England and Gloucester wages are on a financial par with Tonga ! ! ! Just because you write it does not make it true, it makes what you wrote sound rather humourous...! Please post a link to this quote by Vainkoala...? no link didn't happen. Flutey has played and beaten the Lions for an Internationally respected and recognized team, the New Zealand Maoris. They play against National sides in the Churchill Cup. I don't know why the Maoris do not count as international NZ qualification as they can regularly be used as a feeder team? I would love to know the IRB stance on not recognizing the Maoris, but recognizing the Pacific Islanders ? Maybe because the way english selection policy is going there will be an England Maoris as well as a New Zealand one. [/b][/quote] Because the Pacific Islanders is an equivalent to the Lions. The Maoris are a side on a level with England Saxons. And as I said before, no one seems to mind that Sivivatu and Lauaki both played in a full international for the Pacific Islanders, against New Zealand. Incidentally, Flutey didn't play for the Maori when they played the Lions. He was a sub for Wellington when they played the Lions. And don't try to make a point about English selection policy... there's one Maori ever played for England it's hardly an epidemic. And where did anyone mention a quote from Vainikolo? Go back to 606 you're being a WUM. [/QUOTE]
