      @NTA Other thing is maybe someone from press actually asked Marinos a question , and Hamish wants to make sure that noone else speaks about game?

        It seems like Eddie is running Oz rugby anyway so they may as well not bother appointing a CEO.

        But it is intriguing as to why he's leaving, I wonder if we'll ever find out?

              Well that doesn't surprise me when thinking about how he conducted himself over Super Rugby Pacific ...

                  @Daffy-Jaffy He’d be better off playing for France, no?

                    He isn't eligible for France. He can go to Aussie as he was born there.

                      There may be an avenue for France via 7s (if he holds nationality) but hasn't he stated that he is available for Oz?

                          I am pretty sure that new rule says you can only go to another country that you have a clear link with. Unless he has french ancestry he can't play for France.

                              @mikedogz thanks. Guess he might be happy to play for a tier 2 nation then.

                                        that's massive isn't it?

                                        Has been, for two years. I think there will be a load for the RWC.

                                        hasn't it only been the Olympics? Or I am totally out of touch

                                        Out of touch, that was released Nov 2021. 3 year stand down and you can play for another country that you/parent/grandparent has been born in. Can't play for another country on residency tho.

                                        Piutau, Moala, Folau have already used it, for example. They don't want to upset their pay masters, so haven't played much. But no other games on during RWC, so I think we will see a lot more
