[QUOTE="TRF_heineken, post: 848145, member: 40658"] Hahaha, typical. They are the conference that is struggling, even last year they had trouble with their teams, and all of a sudden they want us out? Does it perhaps have something to do with the results and that the Australian conference? Their top ranked team the Brumbies, have less points than the Jaguares who is third in the SA 2 Conference and can't even qualify at the moment for the playoffs. As for revenue, I don't understand why they would want to make an enemy of South Africa. It is a well known fact that we are, and have been the biggest contributors when it comes to viewership and revenue. I get what the All Blacks are saying, and it makes a lot more sense. My guess is that for the first time in a long long time, the so-called "alliance" between NZRU and ARU of steamrolling SARU at the SANZAR meetings have turned sour, and for a change, the ARU is not getting everything they wanted. Wasn't it the ARU who started this whole problem of the conference system and team expansion?? Look where it got us. [/QUOTE]
