I was just wondering like Squadron Leader is it time to move on with regards to DR's and Loans? After all and I am sure this will go down like a lead balloon for some:
1. DR's have been around for ~19 years! And those young players always speak highly of their experience with the clubs and how it set their career up. Dan Cole being one of the early ones. 2. All clubs, yes all clubs have used them at some stage, whether short term or long term. 3. Every player who pulls on the team shirt will play for the team, for the fans of that team and may well get injured, potentially career ending for that team. 4. Clubs have been kind of forced into it with funding dramatically cut and the promised return of money disappearing, with no sponsor. A cheap option is to pay a Premiership club for up and coming players. 5. All but Scottish took huge loans to entertain us during COVID and these need repaying, so the clubs need to save money. We would rather they still be here and not go into oblivion! 6. The majority of the Championship clubs agree to the regulations. Yes 10 starting or even in a squad is too much but the clubs allowed it! 7. As much as we would all like to not have them, the RFU are to blame for allowing Premiership clubs to hold on to all the talent. They should also reward all clubs lower down the pyramids who produce players. 8. Championship clubs have agreed a voluntary code of having no more than 6 in a squad. Although 3 said they could not do this with agreements in place they would work towards the goal. I guess the 3 are Scottish, Ampthill and Hartpury? Next season these are proposed to be in the regulations. 9. Let's be honest if your club can't beat a bunch of 2/3rd choice Premiership players that have may been shipped in last minute, are you really title contenders ready to face a poor Newcastle side? Last year Blues & Ealing both beat Premiership Cup teams, so it is doable. 10. There probably isn't going to be relegation yet again (a mistake in my opinion), so other than a bit pride for most clubs, what are we actually playing for.
