[QUOTE="nickdnz, post: 562167, member: 38640"] Well not really...I'd be ****** off if people boo'd the All Blacks in New Zealand. The argument is 'why should SARU make considerations for people who don't support and openly deride their teams' - which is a good point. Just as they have the right to boo the Stormers and Springboks at home games, the SARU has the right to not give them what they want. My point is that there are better way to gain support than punishment. I generally find it more interesting that the SARU take into consideration where teams will find it more difficult and get less support. I mean I'd imagine Australia would actually like hosting South Africa in Perth because of SA support. If anything it creates a more interesting atmosphere (although there isn't the heated/violent atmosphere that exists in Cape Town - which I'm sure isn't all one sided). [/QUOTE]
