[QUOTE="Bruce_ma gooshvili, post: 873745, member: 74121"] I am glad to have the SA sides in the Pro14 and disagree with the Crusaders/Leinster comparison but think the rest of your arguments are spot on. There is no potential expansion in Europe or North America that could compete on financial terms with the expansion into Japan in the next 10 years (all hypothetical). So from a narrowly financial standpoint I think Super Rugby could be the better bet short to medium term despite the major wobble in union in Oz. It is up to the SARU and fans to decide if that is outweighed by the timezones issue. At least now they are able to gather data to try and work that out. [/QUOTE]
