    Don't you love this time of year where someone is tasked with filling a space and do so with an article that says absolutely nothing.

                        @Yeahtheboys think it was the latter stages of the SR season.

                            The chances of Sean McMahon playing at next year's World Cup continue to fade with confirmation the star backrower has signed a deal to play for the Japanese Sunwolves in Super Rugby.

                              @Stargazer That sucks for the Sunwolves. Be interesting to see where McMahon is playing next year.

                                  South Africa‘s Super Rugby teams will be wearing their new jerseys inspired by Marvel’s Spider-Man, Thor, Black Panther and Captain America at Cape Town Stadium on #SuperHeroSunday (February 3) at the first public appearance of the Marvel makeover.

                                  The Super Rugby double-header will be the first time that the four local franchises will wear their new Marvel-inspired jerseys. The jersey designs have each been meticulously crafted to reflect the superheroes the South African teams will represent while also staying true to each team’s already iconic colour identity.

                                      @Hooroo "The jerseys will be exclusively worn in most South African derbies. The teams will wear in their usual jerseys for matches against international opposition."

                                          Not sure whether it has been posted before, but Beaudein Waaka has been training with the Melbourne Rebels since the beginning of preseason. I haven't seen any news of him signing with them. He was one of the few stand-outs for Taranaki in 2018, and I'd rather see him at a NZ franchise, but since nobody signed him, good luck to him.
