McNamara needs sacking if he continues to go down this route. Saw an interview last year where Mateo said he was desperate to play for the Blues and Australia in the future. League doesn't really have an international scene and it never will if this continues.

He's a scouser, brother to Dominic Mat(t)eo that used to pretend to play football for Liverpool.
Get him in the squad I say. We can always change the 'Feleti' to 'Freddy' to make it sound more English.

McNamara doesnt seem to be trying to push anyone into switching allegiances. However if he did, I wouldnt blame him. The Aussies and Kiwi's have always done it. Maybe if we did also we would have won a few trophies in recent years.

Why not spend the time and effort developing our own talent instead of trying to manufacture players from overseas. Reed, Heighington and Chase is more than enough, probably too much and we wouldn't be exactly devastated by not including any of them.'" Quote: Big Ask "This is getting stupid. There's no real need to try and exploit every possible loophole in the qualification laws.
reed and heighington was both born in the uk wasn't they? if so they are english and i have no problems with them being selected but chase is a joke and so will this be if it happens. another 40 players on a list eligible to play for england?  . be interesting to see who and what situation but he is putting in far too much time in looking for aussie/new zealand/south sea islander converts

McNamara can say whatever he wants in the press about players contacting him and convincing him they are playing for the right reasons but Chase was named in the New Zealand train on squad the year before he played for England and played in the Exiles game. Not something i would think was showing commitment myself if i was England coach. And for Heighington bit of a coincidence that he became committed to play for England the year McNamara took full charge of England. And the fact he is quoted as saying "Feleti is a class player, but it wouldn't be right for me to chase him to play for us," is pretty much saying show interest in playing for England and i have a shirt ready.

Is he? Did you actually read what McNamara's quote? It doesnt seem to be his agenda.
Quote: dubairl ""It was Chris who contacted me about playing and we met up and he convinced me he wanted to play for us for the right reasons.
. . . . . . . . it wouldn't be right for me to chase him to play for us," McNamara told AAP.'" |

'Its like the jungle out there, only the strong survive and the weak get killed off and that's whats happened in Hull. They'll run to the end of the season then that's it, they'll be gone, there will be no more Hull Kingston Rovers there's no room for them.'
