Super Rugby Preview: Jaguares

Jaguares

Off the back of a disappointing 2016 Super Rugby campaign filled with disciplinary problems and a handful of ‘could-haves’ for the Jaguares, coach Raul Perez will be looking forward to a resurgence in 2017. The Jaguares certainly do not lack the quality players to have a successful campaign, with the likes of Augustine Creevy leading the pack and mercurial fly-half Nicolas Sanchez controlling play. The Jaguares Kick off 2017 Super Rugby against the Southern Kings in South Africa on 25 February.
