I think the rules are (I could be wrong) that either born overseas, or had a parent born overseas.

this is the quote from the rules and Oss is correct

To be eligible, players must have either been born overseas or have at least one parent born overseas.

When Simon Black was named I thought I would check becuase I knew Blackie was born in Mt Isa so one of his parents must have been born in NZ.
