Kieran Wilkinson is the younger brother of Caldy centre Connor Wilkinson. If Kieran is as good a bloke and player as Connor he will love becoming a Raver.........

It’s 6 DR max in a match day squad. As I understand it loan players are different but they must be signed for the whole season.

Found this "In the Championship (Champ) league, the RFU (Rugby Football Union) allows clubs to utilize both dual-registered (DR) and loan players, but with specific limitations. Dual-registered players, typically from Premiership clubs, are permitted in unlimited numbers, but only a maximum of six can be included in a matchday squad. Loan players are capped at a maximum of three in any matchday squad. These rules are in place to help young players gain experience and to allow clubs to manage squad depth, particularly in specialist positions, while also ensuring a level of parity within the league. " So 6 Drs and 3 loans in a match day squad.

It feels like a real missed opportunity by the RFU to me. Still allowing 9 non-contracted players in match day squads is simply ridiculous and does nothing to improve the integrity of the league. I suppose it’s a few less than the 10 / 11 / 12 we’ve regularly seen turn out against Cambridge over the past couple of seasons but it is still farcical. For me it should have been a maximum of 5 DR / Loan players in a match day 23 which is still a number that Cambridge and a few notable others have rarely (if ever) reached. I also feel that once you’ve turned out once as a DR player for a club then you should be tied to that club for the remainder of the season to prevent the scenario where 2 or 3 players that have played for a club then turn up playing against that club for another side later in the season.

Exactly, Archie Benson for example.
Played on loan from Saints for Bedford for a month then Cambridge for a couple of months then back to Bedford and ended up playing against Cambridge, ridiculous!! Obviously in between he was playing for Saints 🤦♂️
