Whats the situation re Kolpak/Brexit/Overseas players relating to this? Lewies, Esterhuizen, Louw, & potentially Du Toit. How do they/will they qualify?

We don't have any kind of limits I believe. Just get more money for EQPs.

Another point worth mentioning is that he refers to Lewies and Esterhuizen; perhaps it's easier to get players across if they know they're not total strangers? Or perhaps the feedback from Lewies helped him make the decision?

They'll need to braai together frequently...

It used to be that there was a limit on the number of “foreign” players you could field, but under EU law players from the EU and Kolpak nations (which are mostly rugby-playing nations anyway) didn’t count as foreign. Not sure whether or how that applies after the end of this year...

Then the RFU introduced a bonus payment for any club that averaged 14 EQPs in the match day squad across the season. Quins have never struggled with that, but there was a funny end of season game a few years back against, IIRC, Newcastle where they had to put out an all EQP 23 to qualify for the bonus, so basically threw their academy on.

Estate agents in Southfirlelds will be happy.

Looks a good signing. Adds to our depth and will hopefully be with us during six nations. May still add to his springbok caps, he is 25 and about to come into his prime age zone.

Hopefully, he will add to the competition at tight head.

Happy for Kye leave, if that is what he wants, good luck.

Glad to see Gussy turning the squad around and getting his players in place for next season.
