Taranaki have granted Tom Franklin an early release so he could take up a club contract in France.

Not sure if it has been mentioned, but Sam Whitelock has joined the coaching staff of the Wild Knights in Japan as an 'advisor'.

[Daffy Jaffy]

Liam Coltman and D'Angelo Leuila are off to Utah Warriors.

Leuila being squeezed out at MP with the signing of JGB etc.

Which is a shame. He was underused at MP and is probably better that JGB anyway.

Blair Murray been named in the Wales squad just months after departing NZ

[pooler fan]

@junior12 scored a lovely try last weekend against the Bulls to be fair.
Looks a good footballer.
Highlights the lack of depth we have though in Wales.

Yeah without sounding disrespectful to the Welsh, any Kiwi just seems to have to turn up to the country and they get automatically named.

Taine Plumtree for example has played more games for Wales already than he played Super Rugby in 3 seasons!

[Daffy Jaffy]

Sam Caird off to New England Free Jacks.

[Steven Harris]

Northland loose forward Rory Woods has headed off to Ireland ,hes been picked up by the Irish sevens programme
Courtesy of an Irish mother .
Would have liked to have seen Rory given more game time in the Taniwha jersey

[Wurzel]

With a name like that he should be playing golf

[taniwharugby]

@Steven-Harris gutted, think he is an immense talent, think he should have been used more at 7, reminded me alot of Josh Blackie, think he will go well at 7s with his pace and power.

Kauvaka Kaivelata to Kobe Steelers

[Fredsaua12]

Offical confirmation that Tyrone Thompson is off to the NRL Thompson twin signs with Knights

[cgrant]

Kaivelata is a big loss IMO as he is still very young for a prop. He will probably end up with the Brave Blossoms.

[Kiwidom]

Max Hicks confirmed as heading to France

[Daffy Jaffy]

Ricky Riccitelli off to Montpellier according to All.Rugby. Leaving the Blues now needing 2 new Hookers.
