It’s the best decision IMO. It retains robustness in the SH competitions and dies not further overcrowd the NH comps. Moreover and as far as the NH goes, is SA a financially sensible gamble? Maybe, but one I’d bet the house on, especially when you don’t need to.

Good outcome I reckon.

Both NZR and SARU, and AR with respect to their Super teams, have shown that rugby agreements aren't worth the paper they're written on. So he might well be correct

On balance I'll still take the global press over the ramblings of a stir-crazy saffa.
