[QUOTE="TRF_heineken, post: 1003810, member: 40658"] No, because the teams playing Currie Cup are not franchise teams, but union teams. And that is whole different kettle of fish when it comes to SA Rugby politics. Plus, it seems like the vote was pretty overwhelming in favour of the big 4 joining the PRO tournament. 13 members voted, and it appears that the Cheetahs were the only ones against the proposal. Also, the Cheetahs boss, Harold Verster said that their board will have a meeting with their sponsors, and discuss the way forward, as they have to decide to take legal action against SARU (which I don't think they'll win), or accept the outcome of the meeting and look to the future.
