[QUOTE="Zambaman, post: 61003"] There's just too much rugby when you combine the Super 12/14 with the NPC. That's the main problem. It's the Super 12/14 which has caused NPC crowds to drop. Afterall, in 1985 52,000 people packed out Lancaster Park for the Canterbury - Auckland Ranfurly Shield match. You can't even fit that many people into the place these days. So if the Super 14 was gone, the NPC would bounce back strongly and you'd see the games selling out. Even now, Canterbury games against Auckland and Otago still get reasonable crowds here. [/QUOTE]
