[QUOTE="TRF_heineken, post: 988255, member: 40658"] I wouldn't say no one wants them to join. There's a lot of interested going around, and the constant topic of conversation for the last 18 months have been to get more SA teams in Europe. But I get what you are saying, in that it seems more likely that SA would be piggy-back off the 6N teams than the other way around. Which makes this situation even more awkward. As NZ, Australia and more recently Argentina are all Piggy backing off SA when it comes to revenue from Super Rugby and the Rugy Championship. So I guess SA is a bit stuck at the moment. For me, it feels like there's a contingent that just wants to keep on throwing a spanner in the works wherever they can. These very reliable sources with inside information are more often than not wrong in what they tell the journalists, and then the question should be, how reliable is this source and should I rather let him go. But then again, this source is providing juicy info, albeit wrong, which causes interest and that reverts to hits on the web, and sales of newspapers on the street. [/QUOTE]
