Errors=[edit]

2 errors: 1 - the infobox refers to "club information". It is not a club, it is a rugby union. 2 - in the article "rugby union" links to the game. There should be a seperate article for the concept. 196.215.18.105 (talk) 14:13, 26 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]
I've changed the info box, I think that fixes the issue about having 'club information' displayed. This page really should have way more content. Hopefully someone who knows EP Rugby could do some work on it. Crazydude22 (talk) 08:32, 18 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]
To most people a rugby union is a sort of rugby football club. Anthony Appleyard (talk) 20:57, 15 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]
To be honest the SA rugby unions do act like clubs in many ways now. They don't only draw players from their regions, they sign players from all over the world. However, from a technical standpoint, the Currie Cup teams are based unions, and the Super Rugby teams are franchises. Crazydude22 (talk) 11:11, 2 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]
I don't think all the "Out for 2011" players are necessarily out. I do think Paul Perez is an omission, since he signed a 3 year deal, but he's not in the squad on the official page. Also, there are some Under-21 players that made the Vodacom Cup squad last season, but misses out this season, even though they're still at the Kings. And I think Jacques Potgieter has a long-term injury, he might return to the squad for the Currie Cup. Also, since this page is about the Kings - and recent player movements pertain more to the Kings in 2011 - would there be any benefit in adding a page for the current season, eg. 2010 Harlequins Rugby League season or 2010–11 Liverpool F.C. season? That page could include a chronological list of events, appearances stats, etc...? TheMightyPeanut (talk) 08:20, 13 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]
I did think that it would be too many players to release from the team. I'll try to see if I can get hold of a list of contracted players who are not in the listed squads. We could try a season page, it looks like quite a few teams have them. Crazydude22 (talk) 09:49, 13 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]
