    New Crusaders playmaker - and former Wallaby - James O'Connor is calling for All Blacks to remain eligible for test selection while playing for Australian Super Rugby clubs

    New Crusaders playmaker - and former Wallaby - James O'Connor is calling for All Blacks to remain eligible for test selection while playing for Australian Super Rugby clubs


    New Zealand Rugby are holding firm on their policy of only selecting players based at home, despite All Blacks coach Scott Robertson urging them to keep an open mind.

    O'Connor - who's on a one-year deal in Christchurch - says they'd still be in the same competition.
