[QUOTE="Steve-o, post: 177345"] Sporting priorities of a country makes a huge difference. Rugby is NZ's and SA's top priorty. How visible is rugby news to the English public? When something big happens (the Bakkies Botha and Henieke Meyer sagas) here it's advertised on every 2nd street light on the busy roads. The high wages is a relative issue. How much more is Brent Russell getting than other utility backs of his calibre? That applies to most of the other SH players as well. Are they getting more than the players of the same calibre in the SH? Most definitely. Are they getting more than the players of the same calibre in the NH? I highly doubt it [/QUOTE]
