    Calls from former All Black Pita Alatini for New Zealand Rugby to tweak their eligibility rules

    Calls from former All Black Pita Alatini for New Zealand Rugby to tweak their eligibility rules


    That suggestion comes amid reports the governing body is looking to extract Richie Mo'unga from his contract in Japan by May next year.

    Alatini says the All Blacks may have to copy their trans-Tasman rivals.



    The Giteau Law requires overseas-based players to have a minimum of 30 test caps - among other clauses - to stay eligible for the national selection.
