[QUOTE="Brigantine, post: 864228, member: 73940"] I can't imagine the SR teams and Pro teams will be seen as equal for long. Eventually you will either have a prestigious, elite SR competition with the Pro 14 being seen as a development competition for players who can't get SR contracts... Or the other way around - moving from the Lions to the Cheetahs for more money will be seen as a promotion, the Springboks will be full of Cheetahs and Kings players, and SR will be a conference-focussed development competition, with the SA vs Aus games being more interesting than SA vs NZ. What effect is any of this going to have on the Currie Cup? [/QUOTE]
