How about an option to play in kgs and cm? European players are not familiar with lbs and feet/inches.

As belgian, I never use "imperial" system also.

Though, I would oppose making this improvement a priority.

First of all, the metric of the sport overall are in imperial systems (10 yards is clear, 9 meters and 15 centimeter will not ease my understanding of the forward progression even though I can scale what a meter is intuitively and have to think about it when talking about a yard).

The conversion factors for pound to Kg (*2), inches and feet to cm (*10/4; /30) are also quite easy to implement and convert in your head.

Speak for yourself. I'm British and I'm fine with the Imperial system. The game is based on yards, it doesn't convert well.
