Jonah Lomu's eldest son DOESN'T want to play for the All Blacks

Dhyreille Jonah Lomu, who currently plays on the wing, was born in France during his Dad's brief stint playing for Marseille, hence any eligibility discussions wouldn't be an issue.

Known as 'Frenchie' at school in New Zealand, the aspiring youngster has already began to impress at a number of age-grade tournaments in New Zealand.

Despite being 11, he's already played in older teams as his obvious talent is beginning to shine through.

Lomu's stint in France came towards the end of the his career, which also included a period with the Cardiff Blues in Europe.

Tragically, Lomu died in November 2015. Playing on the wing Lomu finished his international career with 63 caps and 37 tries. He is regarded as the first true global superstar of rugby and consequently had a huge impact on the game

Below, we look at five other rugby legends sons who are making waves, but currently want to represent different countries to their legendary Fathers.

The son of Wallabies legend Michael Lynagh, the fullback made his Premiership debut during the final round of the 2019/20 Gallagher season against Leicester Tigers. He was called up to Eddie Jones squad for the Autumn Nations Series but misses the opener against Tonga through injury.

Vunipola comes from vintage rugby stock and is already well on his way to following in the footsteps of cousins Billy and Mako as part of the England U20s set-up. His dad, Elisi Vunipola, played in Super Rugby for the Brumbies, as well as appearing 41 times for Tonga – including at the 1995 and 1999 Rugby World Cups – and was his country’s most-capped player upon retirement in 2005.

Brooke, who can play across the back-row or at hooker, grew up in England so is fully qualified to wear the red rose. The powerhouse has represented Berkshire at county level and regularly played for his school, Wellington College. Brooke has also played on the international stage with England U20.

The surname Umaga carries a lot of weight in rugby. Mike Umaga won 13 caps for Samoa, while Tana is one of the All Blacks’ most respected captains. And it appears the name could live on with Jacob, son of Mike and nephew of Tana, who is seen as one for the future for England after being called up on multiple occasions by Eddie Jones.
