Who could you play for?

[Burpey]

Australia
Born here, lived here my whole life, etc.

Italy
Mum's family is from there, she moved over here when she was 6. I'm also an Italian citizen, even though I've never lived there. Children of people born in Italy can apply for citizenship, which I obtained last year.

Another grandparent lived in Ireland for a fair chunk of her life, but was born in Australia.

Just England for me though if I went back a few generations Ireland, so.

Don't know if Belgium are much chop in terms of rugby, but I'd qualify 'cause my mother was born there. And Australia, obviously.

Both my parents are English and moved here when they got married, so I also have dual citizenship.

And it is your best friend when you are done with uni and if you want to go to Europe and work.

No work visa for you

For me it is New Zealand (birth) and Australia (only by residency, but I'm not actually a citizen, but I don't need to, just like Thierry Henry doesn't need English citizenship).
