Despite the huge amount of time we have waited for rugby I fear that the league will be really skewed this season.
Doncaster, Ealing and Sarries have been able to train throughout and have played a number of competitive games. The rest of the clubs will have very poor preparation going into the first few games . . so should be expect cricket scores and lots of injuries? How many pre-season games will each club have? As contact training has had to be limited? Most clubs, because of the cost of testing, have limited themselves to 30 players in a squad, if there are injuries and they need to add players what are the protocols?

Bedford and Ampthill meeting twice, one home and one away.
Obviously Premiership clubs not available and National 1 clubs still not playing. So no Cambridge option for Bedford.

The older I get, the more the RFU leave me confused.

I dunno. I'd bet an awful lot of games are already arranged. Just not announced yet.

I would imagine for example Premiership players loaned to National 1 clubs are season long loans so they would train with that club.

Sorry, nothing is a season long loan!. What if the mother club has injuries, player is recalled, simple! And also, there is not one National 1 club full time, so what does the player do, train 2 nights a week and play X Box a lot during the day? Sorry but the players train all week long at the mother club and are loaned out at weekends, only to return on Mondays.. Yes the agreement may well be to loan this player for the season, but you can bet as much as you like he's training Monday to Friday where he is paid. |

Maybe the High Court of Justice on the Strand is the best place for all this to be resolved?

Getting back on topic, I noticed in Coventry's notice of season ticket arrangements, they mention pre-season matches against teams from Wasps and Gloucester.

Yes, Wasps we knew about, but Glaws seems to have replaced Mose. Seems we get to keep the Moseley Trophy for another year then

I read somewhere that National league 1 and 2 clubs were advised not to have pre season friendlies against Championship sides.

Its to do with the Championship being deemed 'Elite Sport' for covid regulation purposes and Nat 1 not

Probably wise not to as well given the players will have had such a long time off below the championship. A few injuries from the games against championship clubs in normal pre seasons gone by.

So how will an "Elite" player registered to a Championship club be allowed to go out to a Nat1 or Nat2 club on loan or via dual registration?
