They’d be mad to play wouldn’t they? Heaven forbid a serious injury and they’d be in a terrible position.

BA bas will play with insurance?
That is the main cost of such a game

I think he means that they would then but get an offer from another club

[backdoc]

Yes, but that is the point of insurance

[Peej]

They also get paid if they play

[wasps]

Yes, but that is the point of insurance

But what would be the insurance payout for an unemployed rugby player?


If they have an injury that keeps them out for 6-8 weeks, they'll likely miss the boat on getting any kind of contract this season, which may or may not hinder them next season too.


Would the insurance payout be for 6-8 weeks be sufficient to make it worth (probably) not getting a contract this season?

We signed plenty of injured players on the basis of their pre injury form. You just make a fitness test a condition of the contract.

I just thought all the players were signed got injured the day after they signed

Always remember that with Kurtley Beale.

Possibly one argument for immediate transfers.
