I guess it depends when it starts. I'd have thought it would be by midday which he wouldn't get to.
Depends when they're scheduled on Eden Park.

I think Link said the Captains run would be here before they left on Thursday. Leaving it as late as possible to get over to Auckland and apparently having a rest on Friday.
That would be highly unusual for the captain's run not to be the day before the game.
I get the flying over there on Thursday bit but it would be really strange to change the captain's run schedule.

Very interested to see how Kerevi goes at 12. Him & classmate CFS could well be the Reds centre pairing for the next decade

They are contracted annually to Melbourne.

So is Weeks but that doesn't make him a Rising player. And he wasn't released by them. They can only ask the ARU to keep 16 players. This year they obviously just didn't pick injured players and let a lot of players go so they only had about 18 players remaining. I wonder how it will work out next year now that they've chosen which ones stay for Rising.

Wallaby squad members from the June series were spread around by the ARU (which includes Weeks).
The Rebels selected their 16 Super Rugby players and then when no one wanted Meehan they got him back.

I think they'll get to pick every year. Players will be contracted to the Super Rugby team which includes the NRC side under them if it's the Force, Rebels or Brumbies.

Jagman, I don't understand how any Rebels players are from NSW teams? Considering these NSW teams have yet to exist in a professional sporting environment until tonight I'm lost for an understanding of how any Rebels contracted player is from one of these teams.
Or do you mean because these players once played rugby for a club rugby team as part of these NRC teams they have some sort of divine right to the services of these players in perpetuity?
That's like saying that since I went to Bond University that my employer has plundered Bond's professional talent and if Bond ever start working professionally in my field I should be going back there if they want me. People go there to get somewhere else, much like they play club rugby to get somewhere else (that pays them).
