    Where to for Super Rugby?

    I wonder if it's because they flick on Tahs v Brumbies and see 51 handling errors from the Tahs & 40 from the Brumbies (I can still barely believe those stats)

    You wouldn't at least wait until he has his international #10 on the field?

    Round 4: Waratahs v Brumbies- Saturday 18 March 7:45pm AEDT, Allianz Stadium, Sydney

    Didn't see the game but Vodacom Rugby app has Brumbies with 27 handling errors and Tahs with 49(!). Could that be possible?

    There'd be some fairly different salary expectations for next year there wouldn't there?

    We don't generate enough revenue to pay enough of the right people to do those things either

    Australian rugby produces enough players for 5 Super Rugby teams. It doesn't generate enough revenue to pay enough good players to stay and play here for our 5 Super rugby teams.

    Some sort of irony if it is the Brumbies that go - their inaugural captain will have played a key role in their disappearance. Likewise Geoff Stooke from RugbyWA and the Force

    The point is the CEO reports to and acts on behalf of the board. The CEO carries out their direction. (Of course Pulver is on the board so must accept his share of responsibilty as well)

    The Wallabies Thread

    Interesting that Timani is still not getting any lineouts at the Rebels. It's always been his weakness and it's not getting addressed

    They also started with a salary cap of $1.6m which has risen to around $2.7m now (with some excpetions) over 10 years - and that's for 26 players playing 27 games.

    The problem with Match fees is you pay your reserve TH who nobody else in the world wants, just as much as your star full back who is in demand across codes as well as around the Rugby World. There's not a way to pay more to the stars to retain them - everyone gets paid the same. It's great...

    As long as the national teams are paying (some of/majority of?) the salaries of the most high profile players then you have a subsidy as well as political interference and alternative agendas.
