2020 AFL International Cup update

Some interesting developments.
I find it a bit strange that playing in Australia should reduce your chances and that a professional in Australia can play. Surely the qualification should be based on playing in a country's league. I don't believe Mason Cox has played for the USAFL or any Irish players played for AFL Ireland so they shouldn't qualify until they do.
There is a great number of players coming out to Australia of their own volition to improve themselves. Why should they be penalised if they still play in their country's competition ?

I agree, certainly in Europe few leagues play on proper Ovals and 18 aside. Going to Oz especially in the year of the tournament shouldn't be penalised as training and playing club footy in Oz should only improve standards. Maybe the restriction shouldn't be there if you started playing footy outside Oz.
