After the weekend’s results in Japan, there is both good and bad news for Super Rugby teams the Blues, the Highlanders and the Stormers.
Peter Grant’s Kobe Steelers managed to secure the wild card spot into the All-Japan Championship, meaning he will have to play for his team at the expense of running out for the Stormers.
The Steelers beat the Ricoh Black Rams, which means that the Blues’ Ma’a Nonu and the Highlanders’ James Haskell will return to their Super Rugby franchises, almost in time for the opening round’s clashes, starting on Friday.
