I’d cancel and prob just watch euro rugby on RugbyPass. Only really want to engage in pro rugby from a broadcast point of view

Always interesting to see how the latest Halloran article reads, it’s tough but not as brutal as it has been in the previous months. She says - World Rugby has placed tough measurements on RA that they have to achieve before the remainder of the loan is given. So far only $5m (roughly) has been...

https://amp.rugbypass.com/news/report-south-african-super-rugby-sides-could-join-pro14-by-next-year/?__twitter_impression=true Fast moving week with what looks like potential decisions finally been made or conversations that needed to happen are finally happening.

Hodge has extended contract there to end of 2023

Anyone else noticing a friendlier tone from Newscorp in the last week. Yesterday on recent standards would be seen as a field day for some clickbait. I wonder if there is something in the works

Apparently NRC has been chopped from this years calendar and up for review going forward. I suspect we have seen the last of it

Article on the Jags from ARN. http://www.americasrugbynews.com/2020/06/01/solutions-needed-as-jaguares-are-out-of-super-rugby/

It certainly is a young person’s job. I have noticed several of the roles were starting to be distributed to super w players as a means to engage them in the sport and offer some form of professionalism to the sport.

Sarah Friend is gone as well, I have a feeling we might of seen Rugby.com.au for the last time. I honestly don’t know who’s left.

She was one of very few left at rugby.com.au, makes me wonder what will happen to that platform going forward.

Sport like non for profit, you’d be looking at receiving 30% less than the real market rate and probably more when you head up the ranks.

Mate it might be a day to give it a rest.

I haven’t thought of it like that, that does make a lot of sense. Maybe the crappy offer was their way of saying we need something else if you want investment.

Plus reduction in travel costs and for broadcasters more content that can be put on at times that revenue from advertisers could be generated from their end. If RA can chop $3-5m at head office, States $500k-$1m each, Super takes a 10-15% decline in salaries ($2.5-3m) and wallaby payments also...

The proposed potential changes to the calendar would also mean getting players for the rugby champ would be easily done. Obviously int windows already means that, but no more burn out with players involved in their off season etc.

I can see it been the 6. As that brings it to 18 teams and break it down to 3 even conferences. The Only option 17 teams would give is a single round robin but the Welsh, Scottish and Irish teams would refuse the notion of not playing local rivals twice. It’d also reduce their current content...

Sunwolves have officially announced they have bowed out of Super Rugby. Sounds like decisions are starting to be made and some clarity going forward will hopefully come of it In the media release they say their participation has ended for now. So maybe that indicates potential inclusion in something...

Plenty of conversation as well that Jags have been told they can find overseas clubs. Paul Tait from America’s Rugby News has tweeted ”Jaguares in Super Rugby are facing extinction.” This, and other headlines are doing the rounds in Argentina. Players are ‘free’ and ‘encouraged’ to ‘take...

Funny thing is they are going to end up in their own conference most likely. Which has been one of their fans biggest complaints

I’m looking for context not snapshots of data. You could easily argue that the Reds and Tahs have had their greatest seasons under 5 teams but we all know that isn’t a true explanation of what’s been happening. You presented stats like gospel and I called you out for why it shouldn’t be seen as.
