Very Aussie feel to the Panasonic side who had a huge win vs. Toshiba.

David Pocock, Berrick Barnes, Digby Ioane, Sam Wykes, Daniel Heenan, Matt Mafi all in the 23, as well as 4 Japanese players (Horie, Inagaki, Kodama & Yamada) who had seasons with Australian Super Rugby teams.

Rumours have it that Curtis Rona has signed, or is about to sign for the Parra Eels

And last week it was rumoured the Tigers..

Whilst the ARU continues to balls up the dealings of the Force, players futures and livelihoods remain precariously balanced.

That's incredibly dissapointing... what's the bet he earns a Wallaby cap in the next 12 months

I expect he would turn it down now.

Reports are he declined joining the Wallaby camp earlier this year on the same basis because he planned to represent the All Blacks.
