@Chris said in Super Rugby 2020:
Super Rugby looks done the international window looks in danger.Maybe we are looking at a mitre 10 comp brought forward a month and extended with all the AB's playing.
It has been a while! Assuming he's not going back to Japan any time soon ...
.
Just not very keen on playing Canterbury, Wellington and Taranaki if this happens.

Yeah Brodie would need some Rugby plus Sam Whitelock would be back for Canterbury would make for a great comp.

The Poo with Smith and Cruden directing?
That would be Awesome Sam Whitelock would be back for Canterbury would be interesting to put together potential cup teams with all the AB's playing .

@Nepia Eh, you don't know the names of our players?
We only have 2 ABs, so not much changing from last year.
I do, but you're usually on top of this stuff ... you know, Bucky might have returned from Japan, Hika returned from 3rd division Romanian rugby etc.
@Chris-B You're going to have to rely on homegrown players to replace those players - Covid is like an NPC salary cap on you guys. :face_with_stuck-out_tongue_winking_eye:
