Believe that elite sports people can get exemptions from quarantine as they undergo testing regularly. The Australian cricketers arrived today and they were exempt from quarantine.

I can understand that but Murimurivalu was on a public flight here, wouldn't that defeat the point of the 2 week quarantine?

This is in reference to Shalva Mamukashvili from his photo at WR. Mamukashvili has completed his quarantine period - nothing said on Murimurivalu’s quarantine period.

Interesting - I’m sure I read (from the club) that Mamu had to complete 2 week quarantine when he arrived from Georgia, when presumably he falls under the elite sportsperson exemption with regular testing?

I like that signing (though with Ruck's obligatory pinch of salt). It means we're starting to add DEPTH to some positions, most positions now I think we can name 2 top quality players.

Scott, Porter, Jones & Moroni, plus Hardwick as a 10 or 12 looks like some depth is being built.
Used to run around with an 11, 14 or 15 on my back.
