Usage
This template is used to display a rugby union player squad in a standard format.
Syntax
Most squads are split into two vertical columns. For these, you can use the {{Rugby squad start}}, {{Rugby squad mid}} and {{Rugby squad end}} templates to help with the layouting, and then use this template repeatedly within them:
{{Rugby squad start}}
<!-- For help using the below template, please see [[Template:Rugby squad player]] -->
{{Rugby squad player|name=#PLAYER_NAME|nat=#NATIONALITY|pos=#POS_OR_ROLE}}
{{Rugby squad player|name=#PLAYER_NAME|nat=#NATIONALITY|pos=#POS_OR_ROLE|other=#OTHER_RELATED_INFO}}
...
{{Rugby squad mid}}
{{Rugby squad player|name=#PLAYER_NAME|nat=#NATIONALITY|pos=#POS_OR_ROLE}}
...
{{Rugby squad end}}
Alternatively, if you just want a single column, you can omit the use of {{Rugby squad mid}}.
{{Rugby squad start}}
{{Rugby squad player|name=#PLAYER_NAME|nat=#NATIONALITY|pos=#POS_OR_ROLE}}
...
{{Rugby squad end}}
If you just want to add Notes to the table, such as for the teams from which regional players are sourced, you can use the notes parameter.
{{Rugby squad start|notes=yes}}
{{Rugby squad player|name=#PLAYER_NAME|nat=#NATIONALITY|pos=#POS_OR_ROLE|notes=#NOTES}}
...
{{Rugby squad mid|notes=yes}}
{{Rugby squad player|name=#PLAYER_NAME|nat=#NATIONALITY|pos=#POS_OR_ROLE|notes=#NOTES}}
{{Rugby squad end}}

For example, the following code:
{{Rugby squad start}}
{{rugby squad player | nat=IRE | natvar=rugby union | pos=HK | name=[[Brian Blaney]] }}
{{rugby squad player | nat=ENG | pos=HK | name=[[James Buckland]] }}
{{rugby squad player | nat=Zimbabwe| pos=HK | name=[[David Paice]] }}

- Additional valid position abbreviations can be seen at Template:Rugby squad role
- name: The player's name.
- other: This is an optional parameter. You can add any related info to this parameter, like specifying captain, vice-captain, whether the player is on loan, etc. It will show additional info in the brackets after the player name. You do not have to specify it if neither applies.
- notes: This is an optional parameter. You can add any related info to this parameter, like specifying captain, vice-captain, whether the player is on loan, etc. It will show additional info in a separate column after the union. To use this column, you must also specify its use in the {{Rugby squad mid}} and {{Rugby squad start}} templates like this: {{Rugby squad mid|notes=yes}} and {{Rugby squad start|notes=yes}}. You do not have to specify it if neither applies.
