    @ARHS Where do you get the info about Gareth Evans from?

    @Stargazer

    Not solid. Just heard something re Evans early this year and nothing since. That is why I ask. Scrap him off my query list if not so.

    Perhaps Aaron Cruden and Dan Carter should be added??? Keen to have someone update the list against contract records. It is quite a short list really.

            Ma'a Nonu is returning to Toulon! He has been signed as an "additional player".

              Anti exodus. Good news. I reckon razor should challenge himself, get out of his comfort zone, and coach another SR team. I nominate the Canes!

                The Canes lost half their homegrown ABs and half their support base the last time they parachuted in a Cantab coach. Probably best he goes to the bottom of the table Chiefs.

                  I'd be more comfortable if the news was that he had actually signed with NZR already. This is just an article about the negotiations.

                  I don't think he'll go anywhere else but the Crusaders, but if he'd go anywhere else, I reckon the Highlanders would be more likely (although I'd prefer the Canes).

                    To be fair, that particular Cantab had no head coaching experience and couldn't break dance.

                      Yeah, there's a reason I want him to come to the Chiefs. 😉

                      Also, welcome back.

                        We already knew that Michael Allardice and Tiaan Falcon had signed with Toyota Verblitz. That has now been confirmed by the club.

                        Also signed by Toyota: Rob Thompson.

                        http://sports.gazoo.com/verblitz/news/2020/10/007685.html

                        Edited to add that in that list is also Charlie Lawrence. I understand he's a former Hamilton Boys player, who has come through the BOP academy. Can anyone confirm? He played for Kobe Kobelco Steelers during the 2018-19 and 2019-2020 seasons.

                                  A few players have signed with Kamaishi Seawaves, a club that competes in the Japanese Top Challenge League (2nd tier of the Japanese competition). IIRC, some or all of these players already played overseas in either France or the MLR:

                                        If there was a "Come back home" thread, then this could figure in it : "Brad Shields to get back to NZ after the Premiership final".
