Rules on who you can pick

Discussion in 'The CPL Rugby that never was.' started by Cribbage, Sep 17, 2009.

  1. Colesy BL Hornby

    They were eligible when they were picked though...
     
  2. Magic AJ Parker

    TBF the rules weren't that clear... even you and Colesy made wrong selections you were just lucky (you'll say unlucky) that someone else picked up on it.
     
  3. Andato BJT Manera

    No they were not as they never played a test against any team.
     
  4. Colesy BL Hornby

    Then how were they allowed to go through?
     
  5. Andato BJT Manera

    No one picked them up when they were selected. But as Magic has stated it would be unfair to make them reselect as we are so late in the draft and some members were warned.
     
  6. Colesy BL Hornby

    I thought Benny said one of them played tests against Fiji and Tonga?
     
  7. Benny BS Read

    Which don't count and aren't classed as Test class matches. Same level as when England played Wales last week.
     
  8. Andato BJT Manera

    Danny Tickle only played a game for "England A" which certainly is not a test match.

    Yeah thats my point.

    They were allowed in before Rob changed the rule, if i had of picked Briers a round earlier he would of been allowed in.
     
  10. Andato BJT Manera

    Matches against Wales and France can be classed as a Test Match provided they are not friendlies.
     
  11. Colesy BL Hornby

    He's played for Wales dozens of times and played one game for GB against France, i think thats enough to make him eligible.

    The fact that Robbi Paul isn't eligible is a joke as well.
     
  12. Magic AJ Parker

    That's just bad luck... you were still allowed to pick someone in that round so you really weren't disadvantaged compared to those who would be forced to re-pick a 15th round pick for a 30th round pick.
     
  13. GYR DW Lewis

    Danny Tickle is eligible. He has played for England in a test against New Zealand.

    It was England A v New Zealand I believe.
     
  15. Benny BS Read

    That is the case manero
     
  16. Lukic L Popovic

    It would be retarded if I get a re-pick at this stage in exchange for Scarsbrook, because he is much much better than what I'll get now.

    I want to be able to select anyone after the exact pick of Scarsbrook to make it fair, whether already drafted or not.
     
  17. Colesy BL Hornby

    Nah that will cause a domino effect.
     
  18. Jabba HJ Bots

    nah it's your fault Lukic you didn't check his eligibilty, if you were in doubt you should have asked Cribb not our job to look after your team tbh.
     
  19. Fungus K Fung

    Having to re-pick for Tickle would really be bad for us this late into the draft.

    Rob only changed the Test bit until way after we drafted him.
     
  20. Jabba HJ Bots

    I think he has only played for Eng A though not England.
