I'd say that's so (super plus non-euro tests - the former really can't stand alone without the latter).
Sanzaar wanted this wrapped up quite some time ago but, while NZR have their home market deal, RA is still waiting for a dance.
Maybe, but we don't really know that.
It will depend on what happens with:
(a) that deal, and how much 'exclusivity' it locks up, and
(b) the ongoing constituency of RA itself.
Yes, a challenge. I'd maintain that Super Rugby represents a minor component that adds value by bulking out pay tv slots for rugby subscribers. So, to the extent that there are such subscribers and test matches have viewer demand, there will still be something to sell.
RA will get a deal.
The issue is whether it keeps hollowing out the game over the next 4-5 years.
