LIST: 5 players who were blacklisted by their countries

Below, we look at five players that were blacklisted by their countries, and the reported reason why.

#1. Alex Goode (England)

Jones wrote in his autobiography that the Sarries legend ‘could not match the pace and snarl of his long-term rival Mike Brown.’ 

However, according to Brown’s column for the Mail Online, Goode clashed with Jones over this opinion in a heated discussion which led to him being frozen out of the squad after 2016.

The fullback then never won a recall despite being awarded the 2019 European Player of the Year award.

DID YOU KNOW? He is the nephew of Jo Goode, who won an Olympic bronze in Badminton in Sydney.
