[QUOTE="smartcooky, post: 500179, member: 20605"] No. You are comparing Apple and Oranges. It was not a professional competition, and despite what you say, the teams weren't the same. The New Zealand Teams especially, were not Franchises, they were the NPC Provincial teams - the Blues were split into two teams; Auckland and North Harbour - in 1993 and 1994 there was no Canterbury team and no team from Western Province - in 1995 there was no Waikato team and no team from Northern Transvaal - there was no Brumbies team involved at all. It was also a two pool split with each team only playing four matches in their own pool to get into the final, so no semis If you are going to include Super 10, then why not go a step back and include the South Pacific Championship that ran from 1986 to 1991 and its successor the Super Six in 1992?
