[QUOTE="SaintsFan_Webby, post: 155493"] I'm perfectly aware of the overlap with the RWC. However, look at the impact over here - players are missing one or two months of the season. They will plenty of rugby for their club once they return. As far as I'm aware, the NPC season is much shorter than competitions such as the Guinness Premeriship and Top 14. Surely the solution would have been to push the dates of the competition slightly? That way everyone would have been able to watch New Zealand during the RWC, but then also see the international stars play a role in the domestic season. This isn't me having a go at New Zealand for central contracting, it's just my opinion that it isn't the best my to operate. [/QUOTE]
