I couldn't give a shit, this could bankrupt NZR and RA. And the SARU know this.

This is a spiteful move that reeks of revenge because NZR and RA played domestic Rugby this year. I actually hate the SARU right now!

Love the contradictions resulting in "cutting off one's nose"
1) You never want to play SA again
2) You acknowledge SA was the financial underpinning of TRC (and Soup too)

Don't understand what revenge you are talking about? They beat the Boks at the World Cup. Now it's a new year, new teams... start again. Don't think anything that happens now and in the future can change last year... SA can try to extend their legacy.. and the rest of the world can decide how long their legacy lasts.

When we do play international rugby again, we will have to try and do what Argentina did. We showed the blueprint on how to beat the all blacks and Argentina executed it to perfection.

Get DStv premium and watch rugby. You are left behind and everybody noticed it.

‘We are performance-driven and the reason for that is so that we have something to measure,’ Bosch explained. ‘Sometimes you can play bad games and get the result, but we know if we perform well the results will definitely come our way.

‘It’s really important that we stick to the structures that we put in place and that we stick to the performances that we want to put out there; if we do that, the results will take care itself. I’m pretty sure if we do perform well every single week that we’ll beat any team we play against,’ he predicted

CC last year was better quality than the dross we saw in unlocked. Even the Sharks were pathetic.

I am sorry but without RC and Soup we are going in a downward spiral.. I doubt our international stars will be interested in playing here. Such a loss not to see Mapimpi in action for me. It's like Vodacom Cup.

I can't see top 14 or 16 producing anything good for us. But if you are happy to see the Bulls smashing your side go for it. If you are happy to watch poor rugby go for it.

Jake White must be dreaming about a decent contest

Both points are terribly wrong. Is English your 2nd language, because this is a stupid post?

Why not have all matches in NZ? Australia, South Africa and Argentina are all off limits... so any reason why all matches can't be in NZ?

That would be perfect. Take 40 players and play midweek matches vs NZ provinces.

The Springboks' two Rugby Championship Tests against the All Blacks look set to be played on neutral ground following confirmation that New Zealand's borders will remain closed for international travel until early 2022.
New Zealand Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern confirmed on Thursday that her government will only reopen the country to the rest of the world in January.

The Boks were scheduled to play the All Blacks at Dunedin's Forsyth Barr Stadium on 25 September and Auckland's Eden Park on 2 October.
That now appears unlikely following Ardern's announcement, and while there's been no official confirmation from tournament organisers, the match could likely be moved to Australia.Wherever the Boks end up playing the All Blacks, the next encounter will be the 100th Test between the nations.
The first Test was played at Carisbrook in Dunedin on 13 August 1921, with the All Blacks winning 13-5. The Kiwis lead the head-to-head count with 59 wins to South Africa's 36, with four draws.
