Tuesday Round-Up
Visser Quins Bound: Scotland international Tim Visser has announced that he is to join Premiership side Harlequins for the 2015/16 season. Visser, 27, has been capped by Scotland 18 times, scoring 5 tries in that time. Visser joins from Edinburgh after 6 years with the Scottish side and will act as a replacement for Ugo Monye after the winger announced his retirement last week. Visser joins James Horwill and former Welsh international Adam Jones at the Stoop for next season.
Kaino Staying In NZ: Blues back-row Jerome Kaino has extended his contract with the NZ Rugby for an extra 3 years. The New Zealand international was subject to a lot of speculation about a move to Japan or France but has opted to stick with the Blues and NZ. Kaino cited the reasons for staying as the Blues having an exciting young side which he wants to be part of and the chance to be involved with the All Blacks as too hard to turn down. Kaino's Blues have not had the best of starts as they sit bottom after 7 rounds of a Super Rugby.
