You can’t, there’s always losers........... but teams rise and fall, unless you’re the Crusaders......... It’s still the best option. An all Australian competition with more teams we can’t afford, yet with less teams overall, with a significant reduction in quality and viewership just seems daft.

Based on recent results, a couple of Aus teams are going to be receiving a spanking in the near future regardless oof whether it’s a 10 team TT competition, 15 or 18 team Super Rugby, or even a 5/6/10 team Australian competition. All that matters is what can we work with now, and the best...
