[QUOTE="Shaggy, post: 431646, member: 43400"] I agree, Australia should be able to keep their own boat afloat, but they should be able to count on their SANZAR partners to fulfill what they have agreed to, to do it. It's easy to say that it's not an issue when South Africa (and New Zealand), send weakened sides for their away matches, when they receive full strength Australian sides. I can't see how Australia aren't contributing for there 33% (it's actually less) when they provide a competitive team ... I can't see that playing Namibia and Zimbabwe and inviting a few Argentinean teams into the Currie cup are going to do anything for the strength of South African rugby, or it's revenue streams. ... Regardless of whether you are pro or against SANZAR, the money has to come from somewhere, and it requires other unions in partnerships, TV rights, and sponsorship ... individual unions are still going to be expected to fulfill their promises [/QUOTE]
