[QUOTE="Bruce_ma gooshvili, post: 1090361, member: 74121"] "Lets do the time warp again!" This report appears quite thorough and indicates Romania will now likely be eliminated from the RWC, granting Portugal auto qualification and putting Russia or the eliminated Spain into the repechage (if my top of the head calculations are correct). Another player who in 2019 wouldn't have been expected to qualify for residency until 2024 (so probably wasn't thinking of it) but because they extended the 3 year residency period at at the 11th hour, will have been captured by Romania without having been taking residency seriously in 2019. [URL unfurl="true"]https://www.elmundo.es/deportes/rugby/2022/05/31/62960b6fe4d4d858278b45db.html[/URL] The initial reaction from Romania is that this is in error. For example, the first photograph is of the wrong player! So for Romania's sake they will be hoping this is inaccurate poop stirring from Spain. For Tier1, the fact they generally only recruit foreign developed players with a view to capturing them on residency (excluding perhaps Glasgow and Edinburgh) may save their bacon from something similar.
