[QUOTE="mike-o-l, post: 195481"] It does help players but it always seems to increase in Numbers. at the moment its more of the Southern Hemisphere teams feeling the pinch but soon you could see more foreigners than locals in a team. They need to make a limit on the number in your starting five teen and in the 22. Its at the stage where the Premier league was ten years ago. Many top teams were headed by Foreigners. Now look at it, there's maybe on English player in Arsenal. Europe has been for the last few years a place for players who couldn't get into there National teams could get payed well. But now its turning to a place here star players are going and thats a big risk to the Southern Hemisphere game. Last point is my only problem about Quotas of International Players is players who play for Fiji, Samao, Tonga, Argentina and teams like Georgia will not have a professional league to play in. They would struggle to keep up with the European (with Pro leagues) and SANZAR nations in terms of quality of Rugby. [/QUOTE]
