    @gt12 Denny Solomona a former England test star is leaving Sale with immediate affect. Wonder if he could get picked up by a Super Rugby franchise in New Zealand.

    Why did they put the draw out without knowing the plans of the Governments? They should have put TBC for grounds until clarification. They put the draw out before the first meeting of the new committee! I think they could play all of the inter country games and then all head to OZ for a super round and the Trans Ta$man games.

    @mikedogz in fairness, at draw time there was zero information available.

    Put out a draw, assume it's good, have a backup. Hopefully that's the case...

    We're better, won more titles, have a bigger rugby fanbase. Fuck those pricks and host the whole thing here.

    It's either host it all here or host it all there, based on the current stance of the government. Don't blame rugby, blame Jacinda's lot

    @canefan If it happens I can see teams locating in the regions in particular places like the Sunshine Coast or anywhere without an NRL team.

    If a sports writer or someone in the media writes the article that points that out, I bet they change this.

    I don't think Aunty Jacinda wants to be seen as the reason for the ABs sucking so bad as they do.

    That's cynical, but if anyone at NZRU wants this changed, call your media people.

    Any chance of Cindy changing anything in the face of a new variant (regardless of any scientific view on the variant) is zero.

    TBF this Covid shite is going to keep changing and being reacted to. planning anything 6 months out is fraught with danger.

    However you still have to lay down your plans (and this goes for sports comps and governments both) then adjust.

    It is a planning nightmare right now. Everything needs to be laid out with a *

    Seems that you could readily do some tours though. Play a Friday game in Aus, then travel Saturday, 7 day isolation, and play Sunday in NZ. Then travel internally, and back across the Tassie.

    1-2 teams playing in Aus each Friday could be the shot, opens up the travel opportunity.

    surely they can set something up with more super rounds, first four or five rounds in NZ, then everyone has a bye and goes to aus for the second half of the season
