Also, it appears that 'Khal Drogo' plays flanker for Australia.
Prior to this year, the Australian Rugby Union would only select players playing domestically in Australia for the Wallaby side. The New Zealand Rugby Union have a similar rule; to be considered for All Blacks selection you must play your rugby in New Zealand.

Earlier this year Australia relaxed the rules and now allows overseas-based players to be eligible for selection in the Wallaby side.
