Answer 2

From the official Baa-Baas Web site: -

Who can play for The Barbarians?

The only criteria a player must fulfill to receive an invitation from the Barbarians are: that the player's rugby is of a good standard and that they behave themselves on and off the field. There is no discrimination on the basis of a player's race, colour or creed and since 1890, players from 25 different countries have worn the famous black and white hoop jersey. Once invited a player becomes a life member of the club.

ONE uncapped player is selected per match.
