[QUOTE="NZL Fan, post: 1577"] Wellington super 12 home attendance figures (2004): averaging 27,256. Wellington NPC home attendance figures (2003): averaging 14,975 (with no all blacks....) I think someone has very "selectively" made that attendance list up........... This endless clap trap about how Super 12 isn't a club comp. and shouldn't be compared to NRL is just bulls..t. Club rugby in New Zealand is a totally different level of play compared to club rugby league in Aussie - same name but different level of competition. The levels, and their direct competition/level in the other codes are roughly as follows.... International Union = International league and State of origin (most players rate SOO as more important then international play). Super 12 = Super league/NRL NPC/Currie cup = Queensland cup, Bartercard etc Club rugby union = minor Aussie league, Auckland club comp etc. Now if we can all agree to that then i think you'll find that Rugby union comes out on top....................
