I wondered if it was how RA budgeted for the AUNZ game Dc? Like you I would imagine it will bring in a lot more coin. Perhaps either RA have to give a percentage to Lions (quite possible as they have no national union paying the players) or even the Saffas were just using it as a warm up/promotional game for Boks etc. I sure there a reason.Which is silly because the AUNZ will bring in so much more money than South Africa v Barbarians.
I wouldn't be surprised if Kerevi's D-Rocks are playing silly buggers and named a prohibitive price.
I do wonder if RA(or NZR etc) has to pay some of wages for Lions, as I not sure where else the money comes from. (something that I just thought of so don't yell at me
