"Francis is back [in action] shortly. We'll sit and look at the scenarios that exist down in Munster. If there isn't room for Jaco then, unfortunately, he'd have to leave and go back. Western Province may call him back... we'e not in full control of this... We'll see how this pans out," said Nucifora.We'll see. Nice to get an answer, of sorts, on this one. It is good to see the union putting Nucifora out as a public figure on such weighty issues.
Word we are getting is that Taute may be allowed to see out the season with Munster but nothing has been signed off yet. Were Taute allowed to stay when, for example, Rory Scannell and Sam Arnold may lose out on game-time, it may smack of double-speak to Ulster fans. Ruan Pienaar must leave the province next summer as the union feel the South African international is road-blocking scrum-half development up north.Nucifora on @JacoTaute 'We'll work with @munsterrugby to see what is the best way to proceed.
