Look I get the permit stuff, no biggie, what I don't get is how the hell Chalk can get a permit having played 4 Div 7 games and 9 Div 1 reserves games and back from injury last week in C2. That's exploitation when the rules are clear, you have to have played majority of games in the grade you are applying for a permit to. Free interchange should only apply to finals and not be applicable to teams still figuring in minor round matches.
Read all the rules. Chalk is eligible because he played D7 last week, regardless of what he has done during the year. If he had played D1R last week he wouldn't have got a permit.
