@Duluth I haven't seen an article that lists the provinces of the SR players, but looking at the official social media accounts of the provinces, there are numbers available. Wellington and Southland aren't clear, so I tried counting them myself.
Province - number of SR players
Auckland - 21
Bay of Plenty - 13
Canterbury - 27
Counties - 7 (including one, Kellaway, at the Rebels)
Hawke's Bay - 15 (including one, O'Connor, at the Sunwolves)
Manawatu - 7
Northland - 7
N Harbour - 15
Otago - 12
Southland - 2?
Taranaki - 16
Ta$man - 17
Waikato - 14
Wellington - 19?I didn't include Lamborn in any of the teams.

@Bovidae They don't have a particular date on which they publish the team lists; some are early (the ponies), some are very late. Same South Africa. The Sunwolves usually dripfeed their signings and sometimes even change the composition of their team during the season.

Jerseys are up for pre-order. No photos yet obviously. Coming December 1st like they usually do.

You started winning shit the moment I parachuted across MF!
Then the Naki joined and it's been near and not so near misses ever since. Should have had the sweet heart deal with the Magpies!

.What are you going to do if Hammer is part of Jamie Joseph's dream team - and appointed to the ABs? They've been on the same Highlanders, Sunwolves, Japan roundabout with Tony Brown so I wouldn't discount it.

Melbourne Rebels unveil full 2020 playing squad
In what marks Melbourne’s tenth season in the competition, the Rebels have added a mix of depth, experience and local talent among the fourteen new faces who join the twenty-six players retained from their 2019 campaign.In the last six months, the Rebels have re-signed seven players, including returning Wallaby debutant Isi Naisarani and John Eales Medal winner, Marika Koroibete. The Club can also confirm the return of outside back Tom English for the 2020 season, who will be in a race with Foundation Rebel Luke Jones to see who can be first to 100 Rebels caps.With the departure of experiences halves Will Genia and Quade Cooper to Kintetsu in Japan, the Melburnians are set to enter the season with a new look halves pairing under the guidance of Attack Coach, Shaun Berne. “At scrumhalf, we have three new guys who will be scrapping it out in James Tuttle, Frank Lomani and Ryan Louwrens,” said Berne.Up front, experienced campaigners Ruan Smith and Cameron Orr are the Rebels new book-ends, and former Sharks lock Gideon Koegelenberg bolsters the retention of Matt Philip, Ross Haylett-Petty and emerging local talent Trevor Hosea. “We took a really conservative approach with getting Jordan Uelese back on-field in 2019. His time in the Test arena will see him come back a more mature player and the contest he has with Anaru Rangi will take both their game’s to a new level.2020 Super Rugby Squad
