[QUOTE="TRF_heineken, post: 435845, member: 40658"] With the last couple of posts I think there is another difference needed to be addressed maybe between NZ and Aus vs RSA and Northern Hemisphere which hasn't been pointed out. from my point of view, especially in South Africa, Rugby is not just about entertainment. it's so much more! it's a culture all on it's own. when there's games on Saturdays, it becomes a whole day event, getting your mates, driving down to the stadium, having a braai before hand, some beers, Leon Schuster music playing out of the car speakers, having a good time, and that can happen 5 hours before a match. by changing points or laws in rugby, doesn't make a big difference to most fans, as they live for the culture of rugby.
