What a bizarre argument ??
If someone is born in England (or wherever) they should be able to represent that country in their given sport.
How far exactly do you want "us" to go back, it's bad enough when a sole grandparent is used to qualify for a different nation, never mind going back decades or, centuries.
It really ought to be simple - if you are born in a particular country, that should be the country and only country that you can represent.
As for Regan Grace and Flower, should they play so that it is no longer an England side under a GB moniker or should they have to be the best option in their respective positions.
Both are good players, although Flower is getting on a bit but, we have better options in both positions
.
Anyway, the last GB tour was just embarrassing so, we're probably better off sticking with England plus, the other contrived home nations.
Maybe as a sport, if we had given Crusaders a bit more support (financially), they may have been a half decent side by now.
Grace would be in my 24 man squad this year if GB were playing. Makinson and Johnstone starting on the wings. Flower wouldn't be in now, no, obviously. The UK is the country. Wales is not a country, and where does England really start, i know where it is officially, but England is not as big as it shows on a map.
