Don't know where else to post this. This news is more than 3 months old, but I can't remember it being posted and it only reached the NZ media in the past week:

@Machpants Nah, all these departures are still relating to players who are playing somewhere else during the 2020 season.
I'd start a 2020 exodus thread for departures after the 2020 SR season.

so the 2019 thread will go for approx 20 months? makes perfect sense...

@mariner4life Nope. MLR is the only NH comp that hasn't started yet. It starts on 8 Feb, so probably no signings to be expected after that date. So only 3 and half weeks to go.
-
the first post in this thread is October 2018. The 2020 SR season will finish in what. July? That's 20-odd months
-
@Stargazer although some of these guys are still playing M10 Cup, so not really exiting?
I dont think Roberts-Te Nana is presently contracted to Northland, but he is one I think they were keen to have back.

@mariner4life You seem to have misunderstood my post. It's not about when a signing is announced but when the player is actually going to play somewhere else.
If tomorrow, someone like Ben Lam announces he has signed with Toulon for the 2020/2021 season, that's a perfect example of an exodus for the 2020 exodus thread.

@taniwharugby Someone can leave and return. We've always posted announcements in the exodus threads of players who were going to play a season in Japan (when it still overlapped M10 Cup) and returning for the following SR season. I don't see how this is any different.
-
look, i barely care, i don't even know who these people are, nor will i watch a second of american rugby
just make a 2020 thread for people signing in 2020, and stop trying to run the site
-
@mariner4life It's my thread, but I'll amend the title a bit.
-
that title is stupid, and long. you're stuffing up the site

Really looking forward to it, I'll be watching the Colorado Raptors, who do have a small NZ connection:

Michael Stewart Number 8 New Zealand
Sam Slade Number 8 New Zealand
