[QUOTE="smartcooky, post: 453091, member: 20605"] Its actually an unequal sharing of the load. The current schedule has little effect if any on the NH Unions or Club, but a huge effect on the SH. The best setup was what they had in 2003, October-November. THAT schedule shared the load almost equally. What we have now does not. As for your comment I highlighted, we didn't get to have warm up matches. We had to devalue our premier, money earning international competition and turn it into a practice competition. And I can tell you that Newscorp, who puts up the money for it, were very unhappy, and that will impact on what we get in the next round of negotiations. The current RWC model is a win, win, win all the way for the NH unions, and a lose, lose, lose all the way for us The Old Farts must be chuckling into their G&Ts [/QUOTE]
