        @canes4life Last year announcements were staggered.

        All I know about this year is that the Blues announcement is at midday.

            @taniwharugby he's playing the game. I think the Highlanders Facebook post doesn't just say he's coming back, it screams it from the rooftops.

                          Not NZ-related news but Duane Vermeulen will play for the Bulls in the 2019 Super rugby season. He will obviously be a key player for the Boks next year.

                              No Quinn Tupaea or James Tucker.

                              Will Ataata Moeakiola be playing the ABs? Not familiar with him.

                                          Some are suggesting that players can't be signed to a SR contract in their first year out of school. That would explain the likes of Tupaea and Flanders missing out, and they would likely be on a development contract.

                                          Caleb Clarke was picked by the Blues but didn't play much.
