[QUOTE="C A Iversen, post: 123308"] Your full of it. NZ fans are not the ones who decide who plays in the Tri Nations or the Super 14, so get your facts right. I want you to name the Fiji, Samoan and Tongan players that have not grown up or spent three-quarter of their lives in NZ that we play for the All Blacks? Who have we not developed the talent in? Who have we poached who reached their prime in an island nation? Why don't you NH nations do what we do and take (if thats what you say we do) players from small or developing Europe/NH nations and make them good by playing them in your comps? The answer is simple. We develop talent. NH buys developed talent. When the IRB one day allows us AND the island nations (Tonga/Fiji/Samoa) to demand transfer fees, you'll all show your real NH developed class. Its there.........somewhere. I don't doubt NH talent, you just won't find it until your scouts put away their cheque books and train the unknowns waiting to be discovered in your own backyard. [/QUOTE]
