Won't happen, because he doesn't play for the Blues. :fishing_pole:

Pro rugby players know fuck all about rugby outside of their bubble, which seems right from players I've talked to. Can bite them in the arse, when choosing a cashed up club to sign for

Not in this article on stuff, but reading the original media release, I see that Northland halfback Jono Kitto has also signed with Worcester Warriors (for a 2nd stint).

seems a bit Chicken Little...

With the Chiefs and NZ Sevens so impacted by injuries it was a surprise to see Bailey Simonsson not in consideration.... until one has a look at the Canberra Raiders squad-list. Presumably cover for fellow kiwi ex-union player Jordan Rapana.
Kinda sneaked under the radar, because it wasn't a French, UK or Japanese club announcing the signing...

he'll come back heavy, worn out, and a bit shit.

This will indeed be Kieran Read's last year playing in New Zealand. He will join Japanese club Toyota Verblitz next year.

Really didn’t anticipate that news about Read. Still in a state of shock.

Wasn’t moaning. You need to rattle some bones, Bones, and adjust your black humour radar.

Japan will peobably suit him more - less playing time = less frequency for injuries..
@ShadowTrooper and even less travel time than Europe would offer, which is much less by comparison to here.
Dollars (or Yen) aside, much less time away from home for those with young families must be a HUGE carrot, expect in Japan, the times worked woudl almost be like a normal 9-5

I imagine it's a vastly different culture though...which I guess might be an attraction for those guys that have slogged for 10+ years day in/out in the same environment.
