[QUOTE="smartcooky, post: 794350, member: 20605"] Any competition format that does not have every team playing every other teams has reduced credibility IMO. The Aviva Premiership, the Pro12 and the Top14 (despite the fact that I don't much like the style of play all that much) have far more integrity and credibility as competitions than what we are currently being served up in Super Rugby. In those competitions, everyone plays everyone else... twice. SR lost its shine for me after Super 14 became Super 15. SANZAAR needs to get their heads together and take some hard decisions and come to some difficult compromises ► ONE Round Robin with every team playing every other team. ► Full quarter finals with no protected home games, if the top four are from one country, then so be it. ► Move the Currie Cup the Vodacom Cup, the ITM Cup, Heartland Championship and the Australian NRC back to accommodate the expansion Only then will we see Super Rugby restored to its claimed position of being the best domestic rugby competition in the world.
