I haven't checked the NZ squad, but I'd imagine they have a fair few South Sea Islanders in there (or have had in the past). Like I said, it's within the rules. Everyone is playing to the same rules, so until those rules change I don't see a problem with playing Manu.'"
It is nothing new. The Italian team that won the 1934 football world cup contained 3 Argentinians - Monti, Guaita and Orsi. All had played for Argentina previously and two later reverted to the land of their birth.
Later László Kubala and Alfredo Di Stefano both earned the distinction of playing for 3 different countries after WWII.
