A few comments.
1) Twiggy has sponsored the force for years, but has done so quietly and as an official sponsor rather than attempting to take direct control in an organisation he isn't professionally affiliated with. Which is appropriate frankly. That he has had to step in this much due to others incompetence is probably as galling to him as it is to the rest of us who could see the Force should never have been cut. That being said i still think it is
too late. Unless we can convince SANZAAR to change their minds. I don't think we can force their hands.
2) We don't need to burn it all down.
Read this here article by fitzy. There is an existing, strong fan base that is waiting, practically begging for anyone with half a clue to connect with them. The Shute Shield is just one example. There is a strong base in Brisbane. A smaller on in Canberra. A rapidly developing one in Perth. It exists. We exist. It's the failed launch into professionalism that needs to be cut free. No free to air? fuck that. Alienation of those with lower socio-economic status? fuck that. Top down economics and funds channeled away from roots to Izzy Folau? Fuck that. Rugby is not dying. It just needs a reboot.
3) Sean McMahon really encapsulated the disconnect perfectly when he said he did not give a shit about the fans criticizing the Wallabies efforts. Off to Japan you go buddy.
4) Whilst England have admittedly got better crowds and they own a stadium, their recent success has come out of a massive emphasis on developing the grass roots of the game. They now have depth to rival the All Blacks, one of the largest player bases in the world (professional and non-professional) and could well be on their way to usurping NZ. There's a blue print for you. It just requires planning further than 1 year in advance.
