Wednesday 22 February 2017 21:43, UK
Super Rugby returns to our screens on Thursday morning and there have been plenty of comings and goings during the close season.
The departures to the northern hemisphere have been well-documented but there are also some high-profile returns, with Quade Cooper back at the Reds and Sonny Bill Williams expected to make his Blues debut in April.
Beauden Barrett shone for the Hurricanes as they won their first Super Rugby title last year and this season he will be joined by younger brother Jodie, who arrives from Canterbury. All Blacks wing Nehe Milner-Skudder is also back from a shoulder injury, further bolstering their backline.
