Its also worth pointing out that Australia is part of the Commonwealth and that George Gregan is in fact from Zambia.[/quote]
His father is Australian and he moved to Australia when he was one. He is as Australian as Heaslip or O Gara are Irish
[quote=āThe Wild Colonial Bhoy, post: 914152, member: 80ā]the man himslef is spot on, BODs caps are a combination of his oirish games and his british games
he has represented his country 131 times, significantly short than Gregans record
including his games playing friendlies for britain is a joke[/quote]
Brian OāDriscoll has never represented his country in an international rugby match. His country is Eire. He has played 132 times for Ireland in rugby internationals, Ireland for rugby purposes being a combination team of Eire and the Northern Ireland part of the United Kingdom.
Incorrect. To be classified as a cap, a match has to be sanctioned as a test international by the IRB. By way of example, when Ireland played Fiji in Thomond Park in November 2012, it wasnāt classified as a test international by the IRB so no caps were awarded. The afore mentioned 132 appearances for Ireland and 8 for the British Lions all had test international status bestowed on them by the IRB so Brian OāDriscoll has 140 international caps and not 0.
You would be correct in saying though that Brian OāDriscoll has played 0 times for his country.
Even if you think Iām a total creep you have to admit my invention of the Manuel Zelaya alter ego has been spectacularly successful. Itās amazing I keep getting away with it considering how my previous attempts with GV Wright and McGeady1916 were scuppered so quickly.
