is that possible?...
Rerouting including changing order of continents is fully allowed, however the new routing must match the fare rules. This includes the rule about moving forward Area1/2/3 ... so Africa-Europe-SWP-SA-NA-Asia-Africa is not legal, while Africa-Europe-Asia-SWP-SA-NA-Europe-Africa to certain cities (not MRU!) is legal. For returning to MRU, you must not go to Europe first (you have to leave Africa to either Asia (CX on JNB-HKG) or to Australia (QF on JNB-SYD).

If already taken MRU-LHR, and wishing to return to MRU, then you must go WEST and fly Europe-NA-SA-SWP-Asia-Africa (no 2nd entry to Europe is allowed!). You cannot go east as there is no way to reach Africa except via Europe, which is not allowed for MRU (it is allowed only for the cities listed in the OWE fare, Nairobi is the closest to MRU).
