Coming back to Snyman for a second...
I'm wondering whether there could be a possible delay on announcing because of WC squad announcements? I wonder if Quins and his agent are waiting to see if he gets picked before dotting i's and crossing t's?If he doesn't get picked, his contract could presumably include our preseason - whereas if he does get picked then we're talking about him joining whenever SA crash out of the WC. Plausible?
Of course there is always the chance that the rumour was just that and nothing more. Either way, Quins haven't said "no more signings coming". Nor have they said "more on the way". TORTURE. I LOVE IT. Yes, I have masochistic tendencies.
We’ve announced de Jäger and just said he’ll be here when he can (depending on World Cup selection)
So there would appear to be no need to hide his signing for those reasons.
