[QUOTE="TRF_heineken, post: 1004777, member: 40658"] They will still get an incentive even if the Boks don't play. But yeah, they are prepared to take the financial knock if needs be. Remember that SARU gets a cut of the broadcasting rights due to it's agreement with SANZAAR, and because Supersport is their broadcasting sponsor. SARU even got money, for this past Bledisloe Cup match from Supersport... So it's not about turning down money. They understand that they will lose money, and it won't be the first time this happens. For them it's more than just the money. And they might lose some funds if we don't play, but they also don't spend on sending the players out to play, which will mean no expenses on travel, hotels, food, salaries etc... They are weighing up everything to make a call. [/QUOTE]
