Premiership clubs face losing England players for half of their league matches next season due to mandatory rest periods and clashes with international fixtures in a truncated campaign before the World Cup
It is understood, however, that England players who tour Australia are contracted to 10 weeks off before returning for their clubs and are due to miss the first two rounds of next season. In addition, with Eddie Jones’s side playing four autumn matches this year and England entitled to convene their squads a week before Test campaigns begin, players could be absent from their clubs for 11 Premiership rounds from October onwards.
