Read something today which made it sound like the England squad
start training camp before our game against Exeter on 27 Oct -
is this correct?

FWIW Sanderson has said we’ll be losing players for our game
that weekend so I’d assume all clubs will

Yep rugby in its wisdom has managed to take a much reduced
season, introduced a total break from the premiership across the
6 nations but still remove the best players from league matches.

They truly are in a league of their own!!!
I wonder how much of that is also due to England's revolving
door coach set up, meaning Borethick needs extra time?

squad ahead of the first game of the Autumn Nations Series

Cunningham-South

Basically, that leaves us with these LH Props
Wyn Jones
Jordan Els

That’s not a terrible position to be in tbh. To lose two LHs to
call ups and still have a (perhaps slightly out of sorts) B&I
Lion to cover. Shows the value of committing the injury cover
allowance early.

Hasn't this been the case for years, though?
I have no idea if there are enough spare weekends to completely
avoid these clashes even with only 10 teams but I'm pretty sure
PRL arrange the fixtures which means the clubs would appear to
be ok with it or they are just accepting the inevitable.
