“A player who is a UK citizen will be regarded as a European player for the purposes of EPCR’s tournaments.”
So only two players who are not UK passport holders will be allowed in any match day squads.
From an Embra point of view that means choosing from Schoeman, Willense, (maybe WP Nel, but he has been here a long time) Berghan could possibly be a passport holder, Bill Mata will start if fit so that leaves only one other from the list, Duahan van der Merwe, Jaco van der Walt, Eroni Sau and Kunavuala.
3.7 Each club is permitted a maximum of two ‘non-European players’ in each match squad.

Does this not just ensure that British players remain within that 'European' classification after Brexit? As has been previously defined Fijians, South Africans etc. are not 'non-European players'.

As far as I understand the situation Kolpak is all about freedom of movement, most of the deals mooted and certainly "No Deal" ends freedom of movement between the EU and UK
But I'm open to clarification on that
