    Good to see Jarred Adams picking up a contract. Hopefully he's back for the NPC.

    @Tim Mitch Jacobson, too.

    These signings also mean that these players won't be available as injury cover in case NZ franchises lose players to the injury ward.

      @Stargazer some very handy players amongst that lot..if your a NZ Super Rugby franchise especially if you have injuries and with so many quality players opting for other pastures during the super season ..you do wonder about the next tare of players on standby..

            And if there aren't many Japanese test players in the Sunwolves squad there is no justification to keep them in Super Rugby. SANZAAR's decision was correct.

              @Bovidae Yeah, this is from the article below:

              There were no Top League players listed in the preliminary squad, further the speculation about leading Japanese players not being released to play in Super Rugby.

                        @Daffy-Jaffy How old is that? Surely Scott Robertson should be in those stats (with a high/the highest win%)?

                          @Stargazer It was posted 3 hours ago. I just now researched its origin and it is from a 2017 artilcle on Fox sports about Nick Styles being the worst super coach ever. So its really only now relevant to past coaches.

                            Does anyone know if there are going to be new Super Rugby jerseys coming out this year? Doesn't seem to be much in store at the moment. History suggests they bring out a new one every 2 years.

                                      Without looking I am assuming the Blues are paying less to win the comp than any team from Aussie?? It's Aussie that don't look flash for Super Rugby... I think

                                        Champions of the World are advertising that the 2020 jerseys will be available on Dec 1, so that is obviously the date for all teams.
