[QUOTE="die_mole, post: 1076502, member: 73648"] wasn't their also a rainbow cup thing with the premiership bandied about at one point? From my point of view it's less a negotiation tactic and more they want to leave but they don't want to pay for breaching their contracts with Sanzaar. They feel they fit much better with European rugby ecosystem. Timezones are better, their schools already have relationships with French and English clubs, and their referees get to compete with the lolURC refs for premier matches. [/QUOTE]
