[QUOTE="unrated, post: 948400, member: 45773"] Yea we might have a clear favourite for the Super rugby final, well we will still see what the Jags can do so let’s not jump to conclusions but please let’s not forget how completely and utterly unpredictable this super rugby season was... every round had suprises and an unprecedented amount of draws. It’s not just the final winner that matters. On the YouTube thing, it sounds very interesting... you maybe have a source? This would be amazing for local fans who can’t afford Supersport and it would help grow the game in other communities but I just can’t see how the cash cow of SH rugby in Supersport will allow it in Any sense whatsoever. Unless you have to watch it on the Supersport YouTube channel but then they would lose subscriber money. Not just them but also the larger pay tv conglomerate multichoice and by extension their owners Naspers. Supersport is a key driver in Subscribers for these pay tv companies and without international rugby and Super rugby being exclusively on Pay tv I would say they might lose something close to 70 to 80% of their subscribers. It’s not financially smart for them, therefore unless you know of some extraordinary evidence i just can’t see it happening [/QUOTE]
