[QUOTE="saulan, post: 793989, member: 60236"] You didn't look at 8.3 b,c and d. Specifically 8.3(d) says: "(d) He is selected to represent the Under 20s National Representative Team of a Union which has been pre-designated as that Union’s next senior fifteen-a-side National Representative Team and the Player is part of the team which participates in an International Match as part of the World Rugby Junior World Championships, World Rugby Junior World Rugby Trophy or the Six Nations U20 Championship and is present at the Match played by that Team either as a replacement, substitute or playing member of that Team and has, at the time of the Match, reached the age of majority" So no matter what, the player won't be eligible anywhere else. [COLOR="silver"][SIZE=1]- - - Updated - - -[/SIZE][/COLOR] The document in question was last updated 1 January 2016, so it is quite possible it has been updated since the Shingler incident. Here is the pdf if anyone is interested: [URL]http://www.worldrugby.org/wr-resources/WorldRugbyDIR/Handbook/English/pubData/source/files/Regulation_208.pdf[/URL] [/QUOTE]
