Pro12: South African side Cheetahs receive invitation to join league
The Cheetahs, based in Bloemfontein, have been approached by the league, which currently comprises teams from Ireland, Scotland, Wales and Italy. The Pro12 deny extending a formal invitation, but say discussions are underway between stakeholders.

@Stargazer would seem an odd team to invite, although I guess what is likely to happen is a bunch of off-shore Saffas may sign up to strengthen it?

Fuuuuuuuck that.
August 11th? In Kumagaya (literally, the hottest part of Japan)
I won't be in town, but even if I were, no fucking way. Seriously, I hope no-one strokes out.

I've spent 3 months working in Tokyo (Jul-Sep) - stinking hot and super high humidity. Are they doing this as a favor for FIFA to see what will happen to athletes in Qatar?

Better than playing in Fukuoka that time of year!

What the heck is going on with several SR sides to go to Japan for one game? Now this and the timing is really odd.
With the Rebels also signing England and Lions lock Geoff Parling for 2018 Super Rugby season, can we conclude that they will not be cut from the competition? Or just tactics (with Parling having an out-clause in his contract, obviously) to try convincing ARU not to cut the Rebels?

Michael Collins signs one-year contract extension with the Blues
This makes me happy
Look forward to Tana picking him in every game next year and reading the crying about it on here.

I'm loving the keep marching forward attitude from Melbourne right now in this whole Super Rugby debacle, you could almost say they're being......... rebellious.

Veitch starting the rumour mill for Super rugby 2018...
Waisake Naholo and Seta Temanivalu to the Chiefs next year
-
@taniwharugby But the Chiefs would have Ngatai and ALB in the midfield so Seta is back on the wing.
