Saracens - and news from Andy Goode

Hearing that Ed Griffiths the @Saracens CEO has been acting as an agent without an RFU license and also is representing some of the current Saracens players! Pretty sure this is against the @premrugby regulations and will be investigated as it means he shouldn’t be a club CEO....

Thinking about it, we know that Saracens at they don't use Agents and that's supposedly where they save money.

If Goodey is correct, have they just been appointing Ed Griffiths as an agent for the players to tell them that everything is above board and hunky dory with the deals?

or is it that, by offering players to other Clubs, he is acting as an agent?

If so, by demanding a "transfer fee" and not managing to offload any of them, he has shown himself not to be a very good one.
