[QUOTE="RedruthRFC, post: 1060031, member: 58362"] That's my understanding. Trying to strong arm the RFU into a deal that sees NZR get more money doesn't work the same way as it does with other unions because the RFU don't struggle to sell out Twickenham against tier one opposition, so given the choice between playing someone else on a standard deal and giving NZR a larger share, the RFU are better off playing someone else. That said, there was a match scheduled for last year. Given how far in advance international fixtures are planned, it wasn't feasible to simply move that fixture back to this year. [/QUOTE]
