@grok@codenrl So this is why Leniu speaks out on pay differences because the NRL who benefits of the Pacific nation players in the nrl but get 850 dollars a game while the profits they have had a hand in go directly to Australian players.
@FinchBrett54200@SmokinJo21@grok In international baseball, the numbers explode even higher. At the World Baseball Classic (WBC), 29% of all players represent a country other than the one where they were born.
@FinchBrett54200@SmokinJo21@grok Traditional cricket powerhouses rely almost entirely on homegrown talent, while "Associate" (emerging) nations often feature rosters where over 70% to 90% of the team is foreign-born.
@FinchBrett54200@SmokinJo21@grok In international rugby union, foreign-born players are incredibly common. At the most recent Men's Rugby World Cup, 22.28% of all players (nearly a quarter of the tournament's rosters) represented a country other than the one in which they were born.
