[QUOTE="die_mole, post: 1085748, member: 73648"] I'm not saying they shouldn't be . . . I think we've both on this board long enough that my position on foreign player quotas is quite clear additionally, my point of contention with the RFU's "compromise" is precisely the fact that it doesn't just extend the exemption for players who were already under contract prior to the UK's leave of the EU rather than extending the exemption to all players. i.e. a Fijian player who signed a contract in 2023 would still count as a non-foreign player for the 2023-2024 season as long as they were Fijian prior to January 1, 2021. Additionally part deaux, I would argue that you could immediately put the changes into affect without forcing the clubs to breach their contracts, as the regulations have to do with how many players you can field of non-uk status rather than contract of non-uk status [/QUOTE]
