The answer is somewhere in between.
You want to centralise the admin function as much as possible and retain control over areas that are franchise specific and/or of strategic importance such as sponsorship.
Some aspects are already centralised for at least some of the franchises (i.e. my Waratahs membership is renewed through the ARU).
Operations on the ground should be franchise specific but essentially everything else should look to move toward a centralised structure.
