Proof that there really is no off-season...

Singapore and host nation Philippines yesterday won their pool matches in the inaugural Asian Championship.

Huge thanks to @IntRLfan for the match info!

Thanks to the incredible efforts of @IntRLfan, here is the match info for Tuesday's match

[Max Turner @IntRLfan]

@AndrewRLP @rugbyleagueproj Neat little article about Jack from Ancestry (no source listed, but I'm guessing the Parkes Champion Post, 28 Jan 2002).

[Max Turner @IntRLfan]

@loverugbyleague @HeCanPlayFor I think Ben Te Kura is eligible. Have you had any contact with him @HeCanPlayFor?

[Max Turner @IntRLfan]

@nathan_wake 🇫🇮 Sironen, 🇬🇲 Mbye, and I think 🇷🇺 Bennison 🤫

@paulmac_78 @NRLWomens @IntRL Teaghan Hartigan from the 2019 test is also Aseri's daughter 🙂

@HeCanPlayFor @johnlew13 @13_A_Side_ @HoldTheBallYT Absolutely. Wasn't meant as a criticism of you and your work, rather a comment on how common it is for people to misinterpret or misremember information about their ancestry from older family members, including how many generations back their migrant ancestor/s might be

[Max Turner @IntRLfan]

@HeCanPlayFor @johnlew13 @13_A_Side_ @HoldTheBallYT (As an aside, I do speculate how inaccurate some of the information you've received from players might be. There's been a few that have made me raise an eyebrow when I've tried to research it - but privacy restrictions make it hard to know the full story most of the time)

[Max Turner @IntRLfan]

@HeCanPlayFor @johnlew13 @13_A_Side_ @HoldTheBallYT Coen might be a descendant of Heinrich Hess (1828-1904), who was from Leidhecken, near Frankfurt. I estimate that he would be like a 4x g-grandfather. But it's only speculation. Coen might be from another unrelated Hess family - perhaps also early settlers, or maybe more recent

@MikeB237 @HeCanPlayFor Qualifying via birthplace or heritage (up to the grandparents) always makes a player eligible, regardless of what country they are living in.

[Max Turner @IntRLfan]

@MikeB237 @HeCanPlayFor You would think so, but there's no mention of passports or citizenship in the eligibility laws. After completing 5 years' residency, a player must live in that country for at least 210 days of the year preceding selection to remain eligible.

[Max Turner @IntRLfan]

@HeCanPlayFor @MikeB237 So does that mean Justin Sangare is now ineligible despite moving to France at a young age?

[Max Turner @IntRLfan]

@Azkatro Yep, it took me a re-read as well before I made sense of who did what

[Max Turner @IntRLfan]

@Azkatro I think it was Alfred Bibby who died. From records on Ancestry, I'm guessing he was: Alfred Bibby, born 1857 in Poulton-with-Fearnhead, Lancashire, son of James and Mary Bibby (nee Andrews). Death was registered in Jan-Feb-Mar of 1880:

Just missing the referee's name and coaches!

[Max Turner @IntRLfan]

@WorkingtonTown Congrats Sean!

He's eligible for @Irelandrl too ☘️ @MikeMeehallWood @HeCanPlayFor

[Max Turner @IntRLfan]

#quickrlfact: There will be a Ronaldo, a Renaldo, and a Rinaldo playing at @RLWC2021

[Max Turner @IntRLfan]

@HeCanPlayFor @vesh88 @ITALIA_RLXIII From a browse of the England Birth and Marriage Index on Ancestry, I suspect that Oliver's grandfather was born in Ince to an English father and Italian mother who were married in Naples in 1946. So it would seem that it was Oliver's great-grandmother who was born in Italy.
