White bear, i have a question about Moscow Dragons!
In wich division are they playing?
There are a lot of expatriates in this team
 
Moscow Dragons - amateur club. They play at various tournaments and individual games with other amateur teams. Maybe next year will be created specifically for the new league of teams - Federal League (level 3 in Russia), which will be divided into geographical areas. Foreigners do not know about, ask the guest, there is Pyotr (Dragons).

Ok thanks for these infos
Also i've read Penza haven't money to continue in Super League, i think a lot of Penza players will go to Kazan...
I assume Penza will be replace by Kuban, but have you got the squad of Kuban Krasnodar?
I know they have good backs including internationals Vladimir Ostroushko, Ivan Kotov and Oleg Kobzev. Have you got others names?
 
Krasny Yar will play v. Crusaders Knights (Crusaders Development XV) 12.03.2013

By the way, lastest international fixtures with a Russian club :

Yes, Penza on 99% in next season not play in PRL. Kuban have several yong perspectiv back players, but not have good forwards and 9-10. He is only teaching play in rugby-15 from rugby-7. Mayby buy several foreyners from top rugby contries (saud his coach).

Ok. I know they've signed a couple of former wrestlers from Dagestan to play prop.
Thanks to the partnership with FC Kuban, i assume they have money to paid some good foreign players.
Actually, notable players are internationals Vladimir Ostroushko (wing, 25 caps), Oleg Kobzev (centre/wing/full back, 17 caps) and Ivan Kotov (wing, 3 caps) and 7's world series Sergey Gavryushin, Vladislav Lazarenko and Kirill Gubin.

Some rumours announced Adam Byrnes (6 caps for Russia, former Leinster and Rebels player) in Russian Super League. I hope that's true

VVA Podmoskovye's loose forwards Artem Fatakhov (49 caps) and scrum half Alexander Shakirov (55 caps) to AgroUniversity Kazan.

Kazan is building a very good team.

I hope for the next season Kazan and Krasnodar will have a level close to VVA, Enisey and Krasny Yar.
