[QUOTE="Tomsey, post: 478084, member: 38105"] its got to do with politics (like everything in south african rugby...) i'm no expert, so i won't try and explain for fear of offending. I agree that australia doesn't have the player base to sustain another super rugby franchise. as i have posted in other threads, if super rugby is to expand i believe it will be into a NFL style franchise system (AFC, NFC). this would involve australia playing new zealand in home and away (perhaps with extra local derbies still included) and south africa playing argentina. there is no other feasible way to include argentinian super rugby franchises with the distances involved and the number of games that would have to be played if every team was to play each other. what. the. f***... sweet user name though [/QUOTE]
