Why Duhan van der Merwe Edinburgh return makes sense with Rugby World Cup looming
Van der Merwe has signed a long-term deal with Edinburgh. He will be available for Scotland's opening autumn international against Australia on October 29. The winger will not play in Friday's URC match against the Emirates Lions. He is expected to be match ready once he has completed all visa and registration formalities. Worcester's fate was effectively sealed by the liquidation of WRFC Players Ltd. Emiliano Boffelli, Darcy Graham, Damien Hoyland and summer signing Wes Goosen are already playing for Edinburgh and it is a big year for the club. Rory Sutherland and Murray McCallum are also playing in England.
