[QUOTE="TRF_heineken, post: 901922, member: 40658"] My biggest issue is the selective way the journo in the video, and some posters pick a point of view and stick to it. There is no "broadening of the horizon". It doesn't seem like proper research is being done, or that there is a digging for more conclusive articles. Just to get back to the whole schools festivals and what this journo said in the video. He and the rest of SA only see a small piece of the puzzle of the school festivals that happens every year over easter. We only see the matches where the top 20 rugby schools in the country feature, and they all go to the same festivals every year as they are being invited by the host school. But there are school festivals all over the country where the "lesser" schools are all attending. Let's use the example of Sportweni. A schools festival hosted in the town of Umtentweni in the South Coast of Kwazulu Natal, where schools are invited from different provinces to attend. there are like 20-40 schools at this festival, yet it doesn't even make the newspapers.
