Remember folks that SANZAAR decisions are unanimous - if we get shafted, we have to agree to it.

We should throw a spanner in the works demanding that the Crusaders get cut. They're in a failed city that still partly lies in ruins and the risks of serious earthquakes are constant.

I love how NZ wants to go to 15 teams but keep the Sunwolves.
How is a team that has won one game and only gets together for 3 weeks pre-season still allowed to stay in Super Rugby (Takes the Super our of Super Rugby). 3 conferences worked, it had it's fault but its the only solution with out making the draw turn into a dogs bolax.
The NZRU is actively looking to expand its presence in Japan, hence why they're wanting the Sunwolves retained.
This is also the reason why I doubt that any fanciful renegade Australian-Japanese competition -- as mooted by some on here -- would succeed. The NZRU would be much more likely to secure the Japanese connection than the ARU.
let'em go. if they want japanese brides. sure wont be Super Rugby. I guess they'll call it SUN Rugby.
It would be the easiest trolling of NZ media. Guaranteed hit.

Gee there's a lot of ill-informed and spiteful commentary here.
One fact that is a real fact is that some investment decisions that were taken about the money turned out poorly. That does happen, in the best regulated organisations.
Get a grip, chaps.
This is a photo of SANZAAR all patting themselves on the back for a job well done in signing off on the current format, a format which is now killing the competition.
There's little to defend in how SANZAAR and the ARU have handled this whole debacle, from the moment the rumours of culling a team started to now, where meetings are capturing more headlines in major newspaper then the actual season..
It's a debacle mate, stop defending those who have made shitty decisions which have compromised the future of the code in this country.
Which is why we should be demanding that the competition runs for 18 rounds with no byes so we can have both home and away derby matches. Nothing less.
