    I assumed you were making some gag about him being IN the closet, or whether he'd finally come OUT.
    But - rather - I think what you missed was this little line:

    "The Waratahs are yet to announce their full 2019 Super Rugby squad..."

    A few words on the squads.
    The Sharks and the Lions have lost a lot of experienced players. Without Dreyer, Van Rooyen and Mostert, the Lions front five will look far less impressive.
    The Australian conference is even weaker is year. Maybe we could see five NZ teams within the eight qualified for the quarters and the semis.
    The Highlanders have made the best recruitment IMO, particularly up front.

    Folau is listed in the squad.

    Hah that's funny....they've updated it. There was definitely only one yesterday and it wasn't Israel.

    @Stargazer Tim Bateman is listed as an "Out" for the Crusaders, but that's not correct is it? Or has Tim done a runner since the squads were announced?

    @Chris-B

    He was on the same plane as me coming home from Japan, perhaps he's staying there?

    On that note, also on the same plane was Elliot Dixon, who is a fucking unit.

    @Chris-B No, I don't think that's correct. He's on the updated teamlist on the Crusaders' website and I haven't seen anything that indicates he's leaving or injured (long-term). He played for the Ricoh Black Rams in their last Top League game on 15 December (not their non-competition game on 22 December).

    Any rumours about the squads? Who's injured, who's fat, who's fired up? That sort of thing.

    @Tim They'll probably have to do yoyo tests on Monday! They'll be like 😨 when they wake up in the morning, and like 🤮 when they're done.

    @nzzp I think it was early 2017, Tom Robinson had the Blues record at 4.34 I think it was, best boy in my team did it in 5.32 as a 10 year old...I'm gonna start some pre-season with them in Feb...
