[QUOTE="unrated, post: 848012, member: 45773"] We know two SA teams are going to lose their place and we are 98% sure that it will be the kings and Cheetahs. Its actually very sad. The Kings going i understand but the Cheetahs produce some of the best players in the country and i feel its extremely unjust for them to lose their spot. The have done so well in the CC and im confident they will end the year in Super rugby with a good record. Australia should lose 2 teams instead as i feel the Cheetahs deserve to be in the comp more, compared to the western force, Rebels, Sunwolves ,Kings. When the Cheetahs lose their Super Rugby status they will lose most of their players thats almost guaranteed. I fear that if they disband these Super rugby teams then the players would have an option to either join another Super Rugby side or they can go to Europe and i suspect half of the cheetahs will go to Europe. As for the Cheetahs that has Springbok ambitions atleast some of our teams that remains will become stronger. It would be nice if the Sharks can get Francois Venter and their scrumhalf since Reinach is going to Europe. Also would not mind blommetjies. And Goosen (heard some rumours that he was due to join up with the cheetahs next year). They cant establish the cats again it did not work. It was a failed experiment. If Saru even considers it then i feel it would just be better to merge the Cheetahs players into lions instead of making the cats play in Bloem and JHB as not one set of supporters can really identify with the Cats.
