Saffas don't count towards ML & HEC restrictions regarding the number of non-EU players in the matchday squad but players from Oz and NZ do.stickinout wrote:
One thought this throws up for me is: Would NZ NIQs not be better suited to UR rather than Saffers who play on hard pitches and in the sun?

plain racist if you're correct.
Left hand, right hand, it doesn't matter. I'm amphibious.
Re: Ruan becomes an Ulsterman
Nothing to do with race.
EU and RSA have bilateral agreements on trade. From a rugby POV, this means that a SA national with a valid work permit, etc must be treated the same as an EU national. Similar agreements with the Pacific Islands, etc.
An Ozzy or Kiwi is only exempt from the rules if he has a EU passport (as many of them do).

Re: Ruan becomes an Ulsterman
Perhaps not like me to be over-sensitive but have to say that is just a little over the top for my liking. The cops in SA have shot quite a few more than "stars", the only descrimination in their shooting has been the discriminating way that they have targeted only non-whites.scrum5 wrote:Yeh but at least the cops in SA can shoot the stars.....Im sure he's seen similar if not worse in South Africa
As one who was recently coshed & beaten by the moderators for alledged racism I can't let that one pass without comment but needless to say I shan't be reporting you to teacher
Learning anything DL?
Before you insult somebody you should walk a mile in their shoes. That way when you insult them you'll be a mile away and have their shoes!

By coshing & beating didn't include a suspension but I appreciate the thought anyway 
I have been in sunny Spain for a while trying to survive the tedium of no rugby & this esteemed forum being reduced to finding something to talk about...............like golf, world cup or other detritis.
Roll on the friendlies.
