That's sophistry really, isn't it. Rugby players can be female, but to 
prefer one in a job offer is likely to be interpreted as sex 
discrimination[1]

s/$/ because we're not inclined to pay a lot/
would be honest[2], with a disclaimer that if anyone of whatever age 
presents themself they'll be considered on their merits.


[1] unless it's a job playing rugby, I suppose. How come that's OK?

[2] if accurate ...

... but if that weren't the reason for the preference it really would 
look like age discrimination.

older employees, from last job :-(. Now s/internet//, where age 
discrimination generally works the other way :-)
