I went to tahs match at new bankwest stadium where last tahs game I think I went to was when they won the final against the crusaders in front of 60k fans. Despite ordinary second half rugby was still not too bad and stadium fantastic for watching rugby. For me though the super rugby brand is so tarnished that only complete rebrand and reinvigoration of the competition can salvage this.
If Sanzaar and RA think just moving to a round robin competition with 14 teams is enough change then they seriously show how they should not even be in charge of running a lemonade stand. Sanzaar and past RA administrations have so screwed up super rugby and disenfranchised rugby fans and interest in this country that only a complete overhaul and new pro rugby strategy and competitions based on entertainment package that competes for the modern day sports fan in a competitive market for fan dollars and eyeballs can give us any hope.
We need couragous leadership that can drive real transformative change as window dressing is just hiding the rotting corpse that is oz professional rugby that everyone does not have to see to know it is on the nose.
