    Where to for Super Rugby?

    How did SANZAAR convince their broadcast partners to pay the same for much less content? How did Pulver/SAFA convince SANZAAR that the distributions should remain the same despite supporting fewer teams? Both of these suggest to me that Super Rugby - and especially the "lower rating games"...

    Where to for Super Rugby?

    Last year's ARU agreement with the force complicates that a bit - the ARU own the intellectual property of the Force and all of the players, staff and coaches are actually ARU employees. They probably can't become insolvent as the ARU acted before it happened. Interesting to see what exactly...

    Brett Impey made this statement SANZAAR is delighted that its major broadcast partners have after due consideration agreed to the restructured format within the existing broadcast agreements. Our broadcast partners are an important stakeholder and their vision for Super Rugby moving forward is...

    2017 TV ratings and crowd figures

    Force v Kings - No rating Unfortunately this one didn't make the Top 20 programs so no rating so far. Might get one from other sources later. The Tassie Supercars took up a lot of spaces in the top 20 so the limit was fairly high. Crowd was 8474

    They may be strategically incompetent, but the board isn't stupid. I imagine the smaller unions will see a relatively small, but significant and vital for them increase in funding contingent on this proposal making it through the AGM

    Where to for Super Rugby?

    Each of the Super Rugby teams requires funding of approx $5.5m - $8m a year. The broadcaster agreements will not be changed under the new arrangement. Revenue stays the same So what the ARU gains is an additional $5m+ or so each year. As others have said, that means a strengthening of the...

    Where to for Super Rugby?

    Pure speculation here, but removing one of the Super Rugby teams would also involve removing one of the Members of the ARU I'd imagine that can't be done without a full vote of all of the members. The AGM is on Tuesday, so I'd imagine that's when it would be done. It's probably also a change...

    Not quite a global season but progress nonetheless.

    While SUper rugby in this country implodes, the Aviva premiership players and coaches are in "open revolt" over the proposed new 11 month season. http://www.nzherald.co.nz/sport/news/article.cfm?c_id=4&objectid=11835162

    Reds 2017

    To be fair to Duncan P, he has one of the highest tackle counts in the comp so his success % is pretty high, over 85%. Hunt's at 75%, Talakai at 77%, Kerevi at 72% Kerevi's got the most missed tackles in the comp
