In my opinion absolutely rediculous for National 1 rugby. 45 players, 10 unavailable so that just leaves the 15 not getting any rugby.I enjoy the Nighthawks games but a game every three or four weeks must be quite demotivating for the players.

Thanks for your opinion. Rediculous or ridiculous, I'll let the CRFC management board run our club thanks.

Apologies for the spelling error. As the senior club in Coventry you must agree the wealth should be shared around a bit? For the players sakes, just as much as the junior clubs.

I do have to agree with StreetRfc, some players that should be playing in at least National 1 or possibly above are not getting played, which can only be frustrating for the players.
Why sign such a large number of players, then use loan players from a higher level which are never going to be a permanent part of the squad. Its a short term gain, but as soon as they get re-called Cov will be back to square one.
I'm sure the loaned out guys are not happy being sent to Broadstreet or Nuneaton, they signed for Coventry to play at that level because they are capable to, not to be one of many back ups.
Yes its good for these lower level clubs, but not really for the player, how are they going to improve/prove themselves if they are playing in a lower league?

Im surprised to see Kurt listed as a winger?

I know that he is at the club, but had no idea that he is registered as a player? Maybe there is a chance of him getting his 100th try!? :-)
