    Argentina manager had a look at one of my guys but obviously decided he was not good enough...:(

    I had declared him for Argentina and all....

    I had a Chile flag a few seasons ago, on the scale of attainable flags it rates quite highly but still nice to log on and see it. Made me feel international! lol

    I need a new flag. Although hopefully I have 2 S16 flags on the way...*fingers crossed*. Realistically it will probably be none with my lowly L4 training facilities...But at least I will be left with 2 cracking front rows.

    Had a Spanish one for a while, but only managed to get one cap!

    Chile had a look at a young lad I bought. That was about it. Don't see why they bothered, he was nothing special. They must be desperate.

    got my first flag last season - U20 world cup lock Conor Brieve! He played 3 of the 4 games plus another game.


    This season i have Edward Curren called up to irish u20s http://www.blackoutrugby.com/game/club.squad.php#player=10226559

    and konrad Grimm called to German U20s

    I bought konrad before the changes were made to speed, agility & stamina training (because of BMI). I still think i'll be training him as a back row long after S14 U20 world cup is over.:rolleyes:

    Heres to many more flags!!

    Had four in total, two current (Georgia and Dutch U-20s) and two past. Should get a couple more soon enough.

    I got the first flag with Pual Hugh for the U20 squad, now a full international, at 10 sessions a week he should be a complete animal in a couple of seasons :D

    I have "bugsy" Malone currently called up, he is my Johna Lomu style winger for my club at nearly 17 stone but will probably play center for his country. With his stats he can play anywhere from 6 to 15 and at a push would also make a tall hooker. This guy will probably get 10 sessions long after the cup.

    O'Harrington got 4 caps and two games in the U20 World Cup as a scrumie, he was a bit of fringe player and was in and out of squad, only got called up a week before the cup as his form was so good and the other guys was poor.

    I am disappointed with my player in the S16 YTP, I doubt he will make the cut as there is probably a bit too much work left in him but he could be a slow burner.
