And while the provinces have been quiet on the recruitment front in the last few weeks, some of their Pro12 rivals have signed up some decent talent ahead of next year.
It was announced earlier in the week that the Highlanders marauding back row Nasi Manu will be with Edinburgh next season while the Ospreys confirmed today that Gareth Delve, who was the first Welshman to play in Super Rugby, will join the team.
Strangely, this will be the back row’s first time playing for a Welsh team despite winning 11 caps for the national team.

He started his career with Bath and Gloucester before playing with the Melbourne Rebels for their first two years in Super Rugby. He has played the last two seasons with the NEC Green Rockets in Japan.
Delve might be 32 but he is a solid player who will provide good back row cover for the Ospreys when Dan Lydiate and Justin Tipuric are away.
