So him playing an age group FIFA comp for Australia doesn't count?

(honest questions, I have never truly understood these eligibility rules)

So long as he was eligible for NZ at the time he played at age group levels, he is still eligible.

His father is English, mother is Filipino, born in NZ and been in Aussie for 5+ years (he is only 20, so hasn't done the 5 yrs over the age on 18, so Aussie must have applied for an exception for him), so he retains the ability to play for England, Philippines, NZ and Australia.
