Michael Cheika has brought together a squad of 29 for this week’s three-day Argentina training camp at Sale, the Manchester-based Gallagher Premiership club. The Australian, who is currently double jobbing as he is involved with Lebanon for their Rugby League World Cup campaign, selected 14 Top 14 players – including the uncapped Martin Bogado – and ten more from the Premiership. Bogado was only a recent reinforcement at Bayonne and last weekend heralded his first start in the Top 14.

Having signed off last month with two wins in their six-match Rugby Championship campaign, an adventure that included a first-ever win in New Zealand over the All Blacks, Argentina will bring the curtain down on their 2022 schedule with a three-game UK tour that begins against England on November 6 and also features games versus Wales and Scotland.

A media release confirming the Argentina squad for this half week’s training camp at Sale read: “One of the novelties of this call is the presence of the missionary Martin Bogado (24 years old), a player who emerged from the Centro de Cazadores de Posadas club (at the age of 18 he moved to the Jockey Club of Córdoba).

“He is a recent reinforcement of Aviron Bayonnais, a team that plays in the French Top 14 and with whom he debuted as a starter last Saturday in the 24-20 victory against Perpignan. This is the first summons for a Los Pumas activity for the wing, who began playing rugby at the age of 13 after dedicating himself to soccer at the Huracan club.

“He debuted in the first division as a starter at the age of 17 and the following year he left for Cordoba. Bogado joined the Olimpia Lions squad in the SLAR and this season he wore the Jaguares XV and Argentina XV jerseys. Another peculiarity is the call of the Mendoza prop Rodrigo Martinez. Although he already debuted in Los Pumas in 2021 (he has three caps), it is his first call in this cycle.

Crusaders rookie earns 'other than Dupont' praise from All Blacks star

My father, a retired schoolteacher, has always been cautious with his money. He worked hard his entire life to build a modest retirement fund and trusted that it would support him in his golden years. So, when he told me about an “exclusive” investment opportunity in cryptocurrency that promised high returns, I was immediately suspicious. But he was convinced it was legitimate—after all, the website looked professional, and the salesperson had been so persuasive over the phone. Despite my warnings, he invested 15,000 USD of his savings. At first, everything seemed fine. He received regular updates and saw “profits” reflected in his online account. But when he tried to withdraw some money, the website suddenly went offline, and the phone number was disconnected. My father was devastated. He had been scammed, and his hard-earned savings were gone. I knew I had to act quickly. I reached out to TECH CYBER FORCE RECOVERY, a company I had read about online that specialized in tracing online fraud. I explained the situation, providing them with all the details: the fake website, the transaction records, and even the emails from the scammer. The team at TECH CYBER FORCE RECOVERY was incredibly understanding and assured me they would do everything possible to help. Using their expertise in digital forensics, they traced the scammer’s digital footprint and identified the offshore account where the money had been transferred. They worked tirelessly with international authorities to freeze the account and recover the funds. Within a few weeks, they successfully returned the 15,000 USD to my father. The relief on his face was indescribable. Not only had TECH CYBER FORCE RECOVERY restored his savings, but they had also given him peace of mind. They even took the time to educate him on how to spot investment scams in the future, empowering him to protect himself. This brought our family closer together. My father now understands the importance of skepticism and due diligence, and I’m grateful to TECH CYBER FORCE RECOVERY for their incredible work. They didn’t just recover money, they restored my father’s faith in justice and gave him a second chance to enjoy his retirement.EMAIL..Techcybersforcerecovery(@)cyberservices(.)comWHATSAPP... + 1.5.6.1.7.2.6.3.6.9.7

Kyren Taumoefolau All Blacks stance splits opinions on eligibility

MP are a NZ side through and through, NZ is even having to pay for it.

Yes they caved to public demand, I bet it accomplished a lot of internal goals. They could have left it to the other groups, but I’m of the belief that they weren’t showing the capability to make it work as being a good reason for NZR to jump in and do it. I think it’s actually funded 50/50 between NZR and WR though.

(when nothing was stopping a pi player playing for any side in Super Rugby)

Neither is that fact true. Only 3 non NZ players are allowed in each squad.


I see you also need to learn what the term poach means - take or acquire in an unfair or clandestine way. - Moana have more slots for non eligible players (and you have seen many return to an NZ franchise) so players are largely making their own choice without any outside coercion ala Julian Savea.

Not one of these Kiwis and Aussies would go live in the Islands to satisfy any criteria, and I’d say most of them have hardly ever set foot in the islands, outside of a holiday.

Another inaccurate statement. Take Mo’unga’s nephew Armstrong-Ravula, if he is not eligible via ancestry in a couple of generations time, he will be eligible because he plays his rugby there (even if he’s only their for rugby and not living there), that is a recent change made by World Rugby to better reflect examples like Fabian Holland and Fakatava.

It’s becoming the jump-ship/zero loyalty joke that international League is.

Look I understand you’re reason to cry and make an example at any opportunity, but you don’t really need to anymore, other recent changes made by WR are basically going to stop the Ireland situation, and time (perhaps no more than a decade) will fix the rest.
