That’s ok be a change to have good forwards

@Nogusta Don’t worry the Canes will start in the Republic which always seems to be the case.

@mikey07 the Phoenix always prevent us from having early home games. W&$kers.

In Wellington ... you can still have them in Palmy and Napier I presume?

Anyone know when this draw is released?

@Nepia very true, the Canes always seem to start away from New Zealand. Even if it's another NZ team away, I wouldn't mind.

SUPER RUGBY 2020 MATCH SCHEDULE RELEASED
The 2020 Super Rugby match schedule has been released by SANZAAR. The tournament will kick-off with two derbies on Friday 31 January. The Blues will host the Chiefs at Eden Park in Auckland while later the same evening the Brumbies will host the Reds at GIO Stadium in Canberra. Super Rugby's continued international footprint will see matches played in six countries across the 18-week regular season, with matches played in Argentina, Australia, Japan, New Zealand, Singapore and South Africa. The World Rugby international Test match window for inbound matches/tours to Argentina, Australia, New Zealand and South Africa is now in July so this allows Super Rugby to be played uninterrupted across the 21-week tournament timeframe (including the three-week Finals series).Click HERE for 2020 Super Rugby match schedule.

Canes start in S.A again and Buenos Aires for round 2, before facing the Sharks at home.
Talk about a brutal start.
I suppose having that trip early brings the guys together and it allows us to spend most of our time at home leading into the business end of the comp.

@KiwiMurph so that's 4 weeks training in December. They usually report back the 2nd week of the new year so week beginning 6th Jan.
Give they usually have 2 preseason games that means just 1 week of training in Jan before the preseason stuff.
Only a 5 week preseason -
@KiwiMurph Cool early evening game at (spit) Semenoff Stadium round 12, that'll be good to go with the kids!
@Machpants first time we had a proper game up here in a long while, not to mention the Jaguares being a quality team.
Like the kick off time too.
I think Mr. Semenoff is out to try change public perception, his name on the team jersey and the stadium...not sure how that will go down, he has always been a polarising person at the best of times.

What do you guys think of those earlier kick-off times, particularly 7.05pm on a Friday?

fucking shithouse! Because for half the season that is 4pm here, which means i either knock off reeeaaaalllly early, or miss the whole game.
Which is why i watch so little Super rugby now. Because i am only really in place for the night game on a friday, and who really wants to watch an Australian game?
-
That's early. Isn't it?
